AI Project Simulator · $59 · one scenario, no expiry

Run the crisis. Before the interview asks about it.

"Tell me about a project that went sideways." You can't answer that well if none of them ever have. So here are six that go sideways on purpose — with a cast of AI stakeholders who push back, escalate, and go quiet on you exactly like the real ones do.

Every PM job wants experience.
No one will give you the first one.

That's the trap, and certifications don't get you out of it. A PMP proves you studied. It doesn't give you the moment where a vendor doubles their fees, your contingency is already gone, and three people are waiting on you to say something.

I spent four years after my PMP shadowing other PMs, trying to collect those moments secondhand. Interview panels could tell. They ask about pressure because pressure is where you find out who someone actually is — and a textbook answer sounds exactly like a textbook answer.

The simulator gives you the moments. Not a quiz about them. You're in the room, the stakeholders are talking, and the decision is yours.

How a run works

1

Take the briefing

You inherit a live project — real budget, real burn rate, a board of work in flight, and a problem that's already started.

2

Work the stakeholders

Message the sponsor, the vendor, the engineer, the exec. They have their own agendas and they remember what you told them.

3

Make the call

Events fire on their own schedule whether you're ready or not. Decision day comes, and you commit to an answer.

4

Get scored

A competency scorecard with strengths, growth areas, and evidence quoted from your transcript. Then run it again and beat it.

Six scenarios. All of them go wrong.

The Budget Overrun

Your vendor just doubled their fees — and your contingency is gone.

Advanced

The Ghosting Stakeholder

The executive who demanded this project has gone silent — and the team is building on guesses.

Advanced

The Quality Crisis

Testing found a bug that can corrupt customer data — launch is in two weeks.

Advanced

The Underperforming Vendor

The agency delivered garbage, wants it signed off this week, and says their hours are up.

Advanced

The Resource Crunch

Your lead developer just went down two weeks before a hard launch.

Intermediate

The Scope-Creep Trap

A "minor tweak" from the client threatens to derail your entire architecture.

Intermediate

Unlock the one closest to the job you’re chasing, and run it as many times as you want — it never expires. The second attempt is usually where it clicks.

Do I need PM experience to use this?
No — that's rather the point. If you're coming from BA, QA, coordination, or a tech lead role, start with one of the Intermediate scenarios. You'll be given the project context you need in the briefing. The simulator is where you get the reps you haven't been handed at work yet.
Which scenario do I get — and how long do I keep it?
You choose. All six are listed in the portal with their full briefing, and your purchase unlocks whichever one you pick — so read them and take the crisis closest to the job you're interviewing for. There's no clock on it: the scenario is yours permanently, with unlimited runs, so you can come back to it whenever your week allows. No auto-renew, no expiry, no surprise charge.
Can I get the other five?
Yes — each additional scenario is $59, unlocked from the same lobby whenever you want another. Most people run their first one two or three times before reaching for a second, so there's no rush and nothing to decide today. If you know you want all six, the 12-Week Mentorship includes every scenario alongside the rest of the program.
How fast do I get in?
You'll get portal signup instructions by email within 24 hours of purchase. Once your account is approved, the simulator is open. Budget about 45 minutes for your first run — it's better done in one sitting than split across a week.
Isn't this already in the mentorship?
It is — and all six scenarios, not just one. This is the simulator on its own, for people who want the hands-on practice before they're ready for the whole program. The 12-Week IT PM Mentorship adds weekly 1-on-1 coaching with me, an ATS resume rewrite, LinkedIn positioning, complete interview prep, and the job board. If you know you want the full path, start there instead — this page will still be here if you'd rather test the water first.
