How a Project Manager Gets Your Projects Done
Running a business, especially in its initial stages, means that you as a leader might have to be in the situation of having to wear more than one hat, when it comes to the operation. Maybe you already take care of the payroll, or recruitment. Maybe you are a little bit more hands on and involve yourself in the core processes of your business (e.g. you run a digital marketing agency and you are also a trained graphic designer, so you perform graphing designer duties).
The thing is that being directly responsible for or involved in every aspect of your business is something that is not very healthy for you or the business itself. Great entrepreneurs are known for their ability to delegate tasks and being able to focus their attention on more pressing matters.
One of the most important concerns for an entrepreneur is the uncertainty of knowing if the tasks are actually being performed. Transparency and accountability are things that cannot be taken for granted, they are achieved under the right supervision, but it a very time consuming work, that is better when performed by a dedicated team member.
This is why you need a project manager.
A project manager is the individual who takes over the responsibility of following up with the team members involved in the development of a specific project. They supervise the constant progress of such a project, detecting barriers or slumps found during the process, providing coaching and counseling when necessary and communicating this progress to the project leadership and management.
