I'm working in an environment where most of the project managers have good grounding on PM mechanics, PMBOK, PM methodology, etc. but lack some of the needed management skills to properly implement larger projects that force organization change upon a company. I'm trying to put together a training plan and would like some feedback from other seasoned PMs.





My question:

What key mgmt skills do you feel are critical for success on projects that involve extensive organizational change (i.e. ERP) and do you train in-house, bring in training consultant, or outsource.


Thanks in advance.

In my opinion, THE most important skill you need is Communication. Your ability to effectively communicate your message to the intended audience is one of the most important skills you will need as a PM
