The Project Manager and Emotional Intelligenceby Nereda Haque, PMP – 2-25-15. This is still relevant 10-27-2020A project manager exudes emotional intelligence when he or she is able to adapt adeptly humanizing any situation, political, technical or otherwise within the complexity of the many interrelationships between project teams, internal and external stakeholders and the organizational environment they represent, exploiting emotional health and project success simultaneously.Think about your recent projects and spend 5 minutes over the next 7 days thinking about how you can keep improving your leadership using emotional intelligence during your next project.Servant leadership benefits the success of the project by providing an environment that is conducive to maximizing team performance, working effectively in traditional agile or BA projects. The project manager cares for the team’s physical comfort, encouraging the team working in close proximity to maximize transparency through sharing and sometimes providing a “phone booth” in order for team members to make their personal calls away from eavesdropping. Servant leadership is necessary during agile project management; even virtual teams are encouraged to work within “close proximity” via live video conference in order to promote team collaboration and sharing.

Why Project Management / Manager Training for Your OrganizationEfficiency and effectiveness drive business profits. Organizations fulfill business needs and customer obligations through projects. It is of highest importance to deliver quality, identify risk and select the risk strategies you will use for response as well as close your project within scope, schedule and budget. Organizations whose project managers have no formal project training often make large mistakes that could easily be avoided by following best practices. This has been proven over and over by the Project Management Institute and its members.To create efficiency and effectiveness in organizations all projects should be process-driven. At SmartPath LLC we have process-driven PMP Certification training that creates understanding and meaning to project management through workflows, exercises and our customized pmWorkbookâ„¢. Our trainees have the tools they need to be effective and efficient in their organizations immediately, as well as the knowledge to pass the PMP Exam within a day or two if they are already pre-approved or within several days or few weeks based on their experience and prior training.Understanding is crucial to passing the PMP Exam as the questions are mostly situational. Trainees need to understand so they can pass the Exam the first time by applying that understanding to the “situational question.” There are lots of outputs, tools & techniques, and inputs that will be part of the Exam questions. Outputs link the processes so if a trainee understands why the input is needed, memorization is not required. How a tool or technique can be used to get a specific output is key to effective and efficient projects also.Our trainees are more efficient and effective after our training as they will use the workflows and apply their understanding immediately in the workplace.

Project Management Certification Training and other related project manager trainingWhy is communication so important in project management and why it is emphasized in SmartPath LLC training?by Mo Haque, MSEE, MSEE, PMP – Director of SmartPath LLC EducationInformation flow plays a critical part in the success of a project. Right from the start it becomes important to gain the sponsor’s trust starting with the project, which can only be achieved if there is a clear line of communication between the project manager and the sponsor. Let us imagine this scenario: When you meet the sponsor for the first time, you observe that while she is talking about the project limitations, between conversations, she is also sending a text message to someone. As your conversation continues for the next five minutes, you hear a bell sound. She picks up her cell phone and reads the text and replies to the message. At least, that is what you are imagining and observing, sitting opposite her desk.Your meeting with the sponsor continues for the next twenty minutes and you receive the most important outcomes such as her expectations, project limitations, target cost & timeline, and the implementation approach for the project product. Your meeting ended in the next five minutes, and you begin walking towards your office. While going towards your office, you pass the cafeteria, and you decide to get your favorite latte. As you sit to sip your latte, you decide to switch your cell phone back to sound so that it is no longer in silent mode.You immediately wrote a text message to the sponsor thanking her for the meeting and mentioning that it was very informative. As you press the send button, your cell phone sounds a bell, indicating that you have a new text message. As you opened your text messages and you were surprised to see that your sponsor sent you a text. You think, “how can she reply to my message so qud she also mentioned that the meeting was well done. It is very clear from the above scenario that it was timely action by the project manager to send a very appropriate text message to the sponsor, since he observed that she likes to stay in contact with everyone using text messages. It is also very well timed, since she has sent the project manager a text giving him instructions to collect the binders.The above scenario shows that right from the start the project manager and the sponsor understood each other’s communication style and also the project manager honed on to the psyche of the sponsor, that she likes to stay in touch instantaneously. This communication style and prompt understanding by the project manager amplifies that mutual trust was established for a successful project execution.As the project manager takes another sip of his favorite latte, he gets a text message back from the sponsor thanking him for the meeting and wishing him success with the project.
