PERSONAL MANAGEMENT SKILLS Abstract:With the rapid development of construction industry,management skills of project manager has an important effect on project cost, quality, schedule. This paper from the project manager of the challenges and opportunities,using new innovations ,human aspects,assignment of work, motivation, decision making and time management introduces the personal management skill of project managers. Key words: project manager personal management skill Using new innovations motivation time management Challenges and Opportunities There is a great amount of pride and satisfaction in seeing a project pleted and in operation. There are many challenges in managing engineering and construction due to the dynamic nature of projects. Solving problems as they arise instills a sense of satisfaction in the project manager and members of the project team. Most project managers agree that lifelong friends are created by working with people on projects. Years after a project is pleted, conversations between people who have worked together on past projects often turn to amusing memories of the problems that occurred and the methods used to resolve the problems. Generally, the problems seem much less serious after the project is pleted than they were during execution of the project. Successful people convert challenges to opportunities. Regardless of how difficult a problem may appear, there is always a way to resolve it. After pleting a project, most project managers are enthusiastically ready to start a new project. They look forward to the next project and the opportunity to apply the lessons learned from previous projects. Most project managers agree that they have fun doing their work. USING NEW INNOVATIONS New technologies sometimes are resisted by people until they are proven. Too often the technology is available, but it is not used because people sometimes resist change. The successful project manager should assess new technology and devise innovative methods to incorporate the technology to enhance the project management process. The Inter is a technology that is currently available and has the potential to impact the way project managers do their work, similar to the impact of puters. The advantages of managing projects via the Inter are numerous, primarily in saving time and increasing efficiency. Information can be distributed more rapidly to geographically dispersed owners, designers, contractors, and suppliers. Correspondence,drawings, and photographs can be posted on projectspecific Inter sites and cataloged for easy access. Key team members can monitor data exchange, which greatly reduces turnaround time for decision making. For example, using traditional methods it may take an hour just to process a request for information (RF39。I) and then take days or weeks to get an answer for the RFI. Now electronic RFIs can be submitted and logged almost instantly, and responses are often made the same day or within a few days. Designers, suppliers, and contractors know they are accountable with webenabled project management. Today, many panies operate in a paperless environment by using the electronic media of the Inter. The increased efficiencies are attracting the attention of project managers who are pressed to acplish more work in less time. Projects are getting more plex, and project personnel are expected to deliver results more quickly. Furthermore, team members are spread over a wider geographic location pared to projects in the past. Today, design work done in any location can be transmitted to any other location of the world almost immediately via the Inter. Design work can progress continuously, on a twentyfourhour basis, by transferring documents from one design office to another to countries across the world. Websites improve both internal and external munications. It can be a significant public information tool. A pany can establish public and private websites for a project. The general public can visit one website for the latest on traffic conditions and construction schedules, while team members use a different site to exchange detailed design and construction information. The private site can save a vast amount of time by providing rapid data exchange among numerous offices and Subcontract working on a is the most mon and often used aspect of the Inter. It allows users to send written messages with optional attachments to anyone in the world who has a puter . Attachments can include drawing files,word processing documents, spreadsheets, photos, multimedia clips, and web pages. Faxes can also be sent over the Inter instead of over regular voice lines. Webenabled management systems add speed and efficiency to processing project information. The systems also reduce confusion and redundancy for owners, designers, and contractors trying to acplish work as quickly and efficiently as possible. For example, the Inter can be used in recording delivery records, progress updates, and other data in the field and transferring them to a database incorporated in a pany39。s web system. Another example is the application of project schedules, using an Intere nabled tool designed to allow team members to see their assignments across multiple projects using a web browser. Developing, maintaining, and municating the project schedule is vital to the process of project management. Whether through CPM( Critical Path Method) scheduling or simple calendar schedules, a website can be used to post current and nearterm activities. In place of a local area work, a web server can be used as a central repository for project documents. The documents may include word processing files, spreadsheets, photographs, and drawings.
