During the conduct of the project, the project costs and the
progress toward completion are the principal measures of
the project manager's success. The possible attributes
exhibited by the project manager that support those
measures of success are listed below:
Plan the work and work the plan. The project manager
must make planning/monitoring/re-planning a constant
activity not only for him/herself, but for all functional
managers contributing to the performance of the
project. Every manager involved with the project must
be committed to performance to schedules, must have
the flexibility and foresight to see potential problems
in advance, and to have work-arounds for those
problems available for implementation. Without a valid
plan for the project at all times, it can be completed
on schedule only through blind luck.
