Project success hinges on leadership, not just management. Project managers must adopt leadership strategies to move beyond tasks and drive project success, transforming their role for better outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Business Administration
  • Organizational Behavior
  • Project Management

Background:

  • Many projects fail to meet objectives, often due to insufficient leadership rather than poor project management.
  • The traditional project manager role, focused on tasks and status reporting, is inadequate for ensuring project success.
  • Project success is intrinsically linked to the project manager's ability to provide effective leadership.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the critical distinction between project management and project leadership.
  • To demonstrate how leadership strategies can be adapted to project environments.
  • To enhance the probability of project success by evolving the project manager role.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of traditional project management versus essential leadership principles.
