Project Manager
3 weeks ago
A project manager oversees different initiatives or projects of a business, monitors their progress and completion, and ensures that they meet the expectations of the clients. Although a project manager usually doesn’t need to perform the hands-on tasks involved in a project, he or she must possess some degree of knowledge with regards to the various aspects of a project.
What does a project manager do?
The project manager is responsible for day-to-day management of the project and must be competent in managing the six aspects of a project, i.e. scope, schedule, finance, risk, quality and resources.
Project managers work on specific projects that have definite outcomes, have time limits and have to stay within a budget.
These tasks typically include
planning what work needs to be done, when and who’s going to do it;
looking at the risks involved in a particular project and managing these risks;
making sure the work is done to the right standard;
motivating the team of people involved in the project;
co-ordinating work done by different people;
making sure the project is running on time and to budget;
dealing with changes to the project as and when necessary;
making sure the project delivers the expected outcomes and benefits;
