There’s a philosophical camp that believes project managers put themselves at risk if they participate in domain activities outside of project management. But to meet the demands of today’s fill-in-the-blank transformation movements, we must also transform our skill sets—or risk becoming a case study in antiquation.
In this day and age as projects become more complex (and are often hybrid), project teams are becoming more multi-disciplinary and often have virtual team members. This requires the project manager to use ever-higher levels of people and leadership skills.
Project managers are increasingly critical to organizational success, but not every organization is treating it that way. Why do so many organizations have no defined career path for project professionals?
