Soft Skills Every Project Manager Should Have

Understand the additional types of skills project managers need to communicate and interact with people in a more effective way.

It has been said that the project manager's knowledge is 'inch deep, mile wide.' In addition to technical knowledge, the project manager desperately needs other types of skills - people skills or soft skills, which allow them to communicate and interact with people in a more effective way. Soft skills are no less important than technical skills. How often have we seen a brilliant engineer or other technical professionals miserably fail when managing a company or organization? This course will briefly cover some soft skills needed for the project managers, such as effective communications, time management, stress management, teambuilding/leadership, change management, conflict management, emotional intelligence, and other soft skills that are essential for the project management team members. Many examples and case studies are also included in the material.

  • You will be able to identify strategies for time, stress and change management.
  • You will be able to recognize strategies to conflict management
  • You will be able to recognize leadership and team building management.
  • You will be able to identify emotional intelligence.
