Types of Project Management Software
Alan Zucker, the founding principal of Project Management Essentials, had this to say when we asked him about his thoughts on selecting the right project management system:
Currently, there are many project management system options, from large-enterprise tools to single-user and everything in between. Many online collaboration tools have become popular in the past few years. Select a tool that fits your needs, is compatible with your operating environment, and provides some room to grow.”
Soft Skills and Emotional Intelligence
As projects become more complex and interconnected, managers must satisfy larger stakeholder groups. Along with technical skills, soft skills and emotional intelligence are crucial to PM and delivery.
Project management is much more than handling deadlines, budgets, tasks and scope. Managers must focus on managing people (stakeholders, clients and employees) to yield better results. Zucker had this advice to share:
Organizations often make the mistake of buying project management systems, hoping it will improve their project outcomes. It is important to remember that software enables the process. It does not create it.
