Choosing Appropriate Project
Managers: Matching Their Leadership
Style to the Type of Project
This research report dispels the myth
that project management is
simply a matter of applying the right
tools—and that anyone can do it. The
authors identify 15 leadership character-
istics and 10 project types, which are
examined through
interviews and Web-based questionnaires
directed at those
who select project
managers for
appointment. The
sometimes surprising
results provide
a firm foundation
for making better decisions about
project manager selection—achieving
a better match between project
manager leadership skills and project
requirements.
