Why Should You Attend

Besides, any member of the project management team may find his/herself in the position of the PM one day.

Topic Background
Managing construction projects requires several skills; technical and non-technical. The project manager (PM) needs to manage, plan, anticipate, supervise, coordinate, communicate, resolve issues and disputes, make decisions, and more. Most importantly, he/she needs to get the project completed within its major constraints, satisfy his/her own organization's objectives and profitability, and take care of his/her own workers and staff while fulfilling his/her own self, family, and social needs.
