With the global rise in multi-skilling and multi-tasking, and the explosion of instantly accessible digital planning and tracking tools, who needs a project manager?<\/p>\n
Surely it\u2019s something we do instinctively? Why would any business \u2013 large or small \u2013 commit a budget to project management?<\/p>\n
Yet the most successful organisations do. And they engage an astute, qualified project manager time and time again. In the USA, high performing organisations successfully complete 89% of their projects, while low performers complete only 36%.* Clearly, successful organisations understand the huge value a project manager adds.<\/p>\n
In a fast and competitive world, industries of all kind, whether private or state based, are more heavily focused than ever before on efficiency, accountability and quality. From construction to IT, and from oil and gas to law, healthcare and management, the world\u2019s sustainable growth relies, more and more, on successful development.<\/p>\n
Whatever the project, and wherever in the world, the emphasis on keeping things on track from cost and safety to reliability is paramount. And for that, a well qualified, smart and versatile project manager is worth their weight in gold.<\/p>\n
If we\u2019ve learned one thing from reality TV shows like \u2018The Apprentice\u2019 it\u2019s that a great project manager equals a successful project outcome.<\/p>\n
Sadly, project management is often seen as an unnecessary overhead, or simply a bureaucratic headache of paperwork that gets in the way of progress. Sadder still, it\u2019s one of those things that looks easy \u2013 until you try it.<\/p>\n
The thing about good project management is it\u2019s only apparent when it\u2019s missing. That\u2019s because project managers are the people who brilliantly organise the enormous chaos of a project into seamless, smooth and streamlined order.<\/p>\n
