The construction projects of today are pleted at such a quick speed that people and organizations are in a continuous state of flux. The industry desperately needs people who can make solid decisions with imperfect konwledge, without precedent, and without welldefined operational procedures. Today’s successful project manager establishes a clear vision for the project, municates that vision, and continually reinforces it throughout the project’s life. Dialogue and discussion are nice, but timely decisions are a necessity. Leading a singnificant construction project can be pared to going into battle. The project manager must exude confidence and mand the respect of all members of the project team. Allegiance to the projectnot the home officeis imperative.

Large numbers of people are involved in projects for very short and intense periods of time…. Fr equent and often brutal organizational changes are essential to the success of giant projects.” Through all of Moolin’s ments runs the unifying idea of the overwhelming and overbearing emphasis on timethe short, intense, activity, hectic time in which one has to plete a project. Dedication to the projectand only to the projectis mandatory to its successful and timely pletion. Due to the time, cost, and organizational pressures a project manager faces, his or her looks, stature, and personality may be just as important as his or her understanding of theoretical managerial principles. As Bill Parcells said in his book Finding a Way to Win: There’s a big difference between leading and managing. You can
