PROJECT MANAGER
According to the Project Management Institute A Guide to the Project Manager Body of Knowledge,
4th Edition, Project Manager is the application of knowledge, skills, tools and techniques to project
activities to meet the project requirement. If your are new to project management, this is might have
left you scratching your head in confusion. So, what exactly is it that project managers do?
Essentially, the project manager is accountable for the success or failure of a project. Typical
responsibilities of a project manager include:
1. Planning, Executing, and Closing Project : definite the project, building its comprehensive
work plan, and managing to the budget.
2. Managing Teams : Facility commitment and productivity, removing obstacles, and motivating
team members.
3. Managing Expectations : Aligning project to business goals, managing stakeholders, and
communicating project status, milestones, and unexpected difficulties effectively.
In addition to all of this, depending on factors such as the size and complexity of a project and resource
constraints, a project manager may need to wear multiple hats; for example, some project managers
need to assist with the gathering of business requirements and/or may work full time on a large project
or even part-time on multiple, smaller-sized projects.
Also, it's important to remember that project manager are not expected to carry out all of the project
work themselves. Project managers have project teams working under them who help to achieve all of
the objectives of the project; however, if something goes astray with the project, the project manager is
always ultimately accountable.

PROJECT MANAGER FOR INTERIOR DESIGN

An Interior Design Project Manager supervises an interior design project from start to finish,
sometimes managing, training, and motivating an entire team of designers to get the project done. The
Interior Design Project Manager acts as a leader making decisions, delegating tasks to other members
of the team, and stepping in to assist when one area of the project is falling behind. In a typical
workday as an Interior Design Project Manager, you might create the day's action plan over coffee, hire
a new Interior Design for the project, and discuss your progress with the client over lunch. By the time
you've hit mid-afternoon you'll have contacted a prospective client about a potential project, and be in
the middle of evaluating an Interior Design Consultant 's performance before heading home. In other
words, your hands are kept pretty full when you're an Interior Design Project Manager. Managing all
this requires interior design experience, along with supervisory and sales skills. You keep in contact
with the customers to establish good relationships and increase customer satisfaction. You work hard to
create and maintain a positive environment and help keep up everyone's energy level and excitement
about the project, in the hopes that it will improve your design team's effectiveness and overall
performance. And, you do all this while remaining current and up to date on the latest design
techniques, fashionable color trends, and innovative design solutions. You will be responsible for the
project, from inception to completion; as the Interior Design Project Manager, you are held accountable
for the outcome of the project. You also receive most of the glory when all of your planning,
organizing, and managing pay off in the form of a completed project and happy customers.
