Keys to defining the role of the project manager

P7

A project manager is a professional in charge of managing all the demands of a project, from its initial phase to its completion.

Also known by the term project manager, a good manager must be able to commit to the work and to the team, to mediate the needs of the client and the tasks of the staff.

What qualities are required of a good project manager?

There are many skills that are necessary for the role of a project manager; however, the differential lies especially in the organization of tasks and diplomacy in relationships.

It is also important to anticipate problems in order to solve them before they actually become problems. That means taking certain risks and making decisions on an ongoing basis.

Communication is the necessary tool for all these tasks to flow properly, both among the team and with customers.

Generally speaking, we can say that a project manager’s duties include team coordination, leadership, and customer support. But, above all, a project manager must oversee that the project follows the established plan and meets deadlines and budgets.

In order for these aspects to follow the established plan, communication and management skills are important to lead the team and achieve the expected results.
