Being able to organize and plan tasks in the right order to hit the
right outcome at the right time is a major part of project management.

Your team could have a lot of project experience, or none, but either way they will be looking to
you for advice and guidance about how to get projects
done.
So manage your team the right way, using the right tools!

Cost management is a critical topic for project managers.
You need to show that you can deliver projects within the cost constraints, by managing the
finances intelligently.

Critical Thinking is core to being able to make good decisions.
This is what distinguishes a project manager who is good at managing issues from someone who blows
issues out of the water every time.

6. Multi-tasking6. Multi-tasking

Studies say that human brain is not made for multi-tasking. But under
tight schedules a project manager should be prepared to bite more
than he can chew. That’s where knowing the right
tools for managing multiple tasks can be of great help.

Project managers with good negotiation skills will be an asset
to their teams as they seek to resolve conflicts by finding the win-win scenarios for everyone.

I hope you don’t have to do project recovery.
But, if you are looking to boost your career then showing your skills to turn around a poor
performing team and project will certainly set you aside from your
peers.

Plain and simple, we don't like leaders who are negative - they bring us down. We want leaders
with enthusiasm, with a bounce in their step, with a can-do attitude.
Be a positive manager and spread positivity.
