Читать книгу Your mom’s best friend’s project manager! Key skills for a successful career in project management and management - Семён Колосов - Страница 13

Since “eliminating uncertainty” is the second name of an ideal PM and risk management is routine, he cannot be intimidated by any changes. Therefore, he is characterized by quick and adequate response to changing conditions and unplanned situations. He does not sow panic in the team himself and does not let others sow it. Does not lose focus, but takes responsibility for solving problems that arise. Overall, it’s unclear what else there is to explain. He is able to adapt to new conditions and revise plans, while maintaining the quality and timing of the project. And when a PM is like that, the team is flexible. He reacts calmly to everything and comes to the rescue. The ideal PM identifies possible sources of change from the beginning of the project, and systematically transitions from old conditions to new ones, smoothing out resistance and loss of team productivity. Of course, he’s not Dr. Strange who can roll everything back and get away with it. He’s cooler than that! He’s the perfect PM who is ready for change. And is willing to apply his skills and tools to deal with change depending on context and scope.
