  13. Olivia Jennifer says:

    Yeah its a
    good article. According to you what we project managers do is communicating.
    And a lot of this communication is done during project meetings. It can
    sometimes feel like you are running from one meeting to another and that your
    time is often wasted. Meetings don’t start on time, the issues aren’t dealt
    with, there is no agenda, there is no focus, nobody assigns any follow ups or
    tasks and of course then they also don’t end on time. An efficient project manager is required for the good management of a project. I think a project manager should
    PMP certified. Looking forwards to apply what I learned in <a

    my company.
