Indeed, to become a successful project management professional, you have to initiate, embrace and innovate on change!
Of course, you should also have the following personal traits to become a successful project manager.
You are the person who must take command responsibility for the team (i.e., the buck stops with you) for its failures yet also be the person who will give credit where it is due, even take less of the credit for the team’s success.
As a project manager, your leadership of a certain project may be temporary – a project is, after all, a temporary endeavour for the creation of a unique product or service – but the changes made by the project may well be long lasting in nature.
Trust is the foundation upon which a successful project manager builds his team and then leads, encourages and inspires his team members, even his colleagues in the industry.
Furthermore, professional competence includes both the personal qualities and the technical abilities of the project manager.
