Personality and Effect on Project Management

Personalized Project Management The personality portrayed by 'the Coordinator' traits is such that he pays too much attention to details and criticizes almost every step of a project. He likes gathering sufficient information before making ad decision and are highly critical of the information they receive from people and sources. They are people who strive for orderliness and correctness with pursuit for factual data and logical arguments.

Even after getting the data or information, these are people who will test and analyze the data before using it to make any decisions. They are known to fear irrational acts and impulsive decisions hence known as systematic managers (Rob P., 2015). Due to these traits, the best project that such a manager can undertake in the business world is the duty of project monitoring and evaluation for the projects that the organization engages itself in.

this is a responsibility that needs one who looks for details that could be hidden from average people hence missing the simple critical aspect that may be making the project unproductive. The personality also allows the individual to evaluate a project with utmost keenness and recommend the changes or halting of the project after extensive analysis of the data collected which results in absolute accuracy in decisions made. Among the strengths that such a manager has are the benefits of foresight bearing the details that he gathers before making decisions.

That way eh can make decisions that have the futuristic approach to the projects of the organization. The manager will also have the strength of getting support of the staff members on the decisions he makes since he will be able to avail data collected over a long period in support of the decision hence face few possible resistance. The manager will also cause least possible collisions and disagreements in his process of decision making since he will be taking due consideration of each individual's point-of-view.

The weakness with such a manager is that it will take long to gather all the finer details and cost the organization money in the process of analysis an lending an ear to all the varied perspectives within the organization.

Project management advantages and disadvantages In the process of implementing a project, the project manager encounters a lot of issues that work to his advantage and also some that are challenging, there are also advantages to the project and disadvantages at the same time and the same applies to possible future projects.

Implementing a project enables the project implementation team to learn of programs and policies that have been successful elsewhere through fact finding stage of the project hence being equipped with better knowledge of how to handle their own project. The project team will also come to learn of the actionable policies that will yield results in their project or even when the project is replicated. In this manner, the team can advice the government or the relevant body on the need for policy adjustments.

The project manager will also be able to generate or record the consumer report from the implementation of the projects. This will help the team to implement the project in line with needs of the consumer hence making it more relevant to the targeted individuals hence being an advantage to both the team and the consumers.

The other advantage is that the project implementation team will acquire skills in uncertainty analysis, which will be a significant tool in the implementation and management of future projects since they will be able to tell from the start whether a proposed project will have a positive impact or not. The project manager, once he has successfully taken part in a project, can effectively advice other projects on the best approaches to use and how best the project can be replicated in other states or parts of the given state.

The participation in projects also helps one develop the skills of how to deal with technical and political challenges and even how to predict and forestall such challenges before.
