Management skills of project manager

Engineering project is the material cornerstone for the survival and development of construction enterprises, and it is the basis for achieving enterprise goals, so the quality of project management plays an extremely important role for enterprises. Therefore, how to build an excellent team of project managers is particularly important for the construction industry. What are the management skills of the project manager?

First, standardize the responsibilities and authority of the project manager.

(A) a clear responsibility of the project manager is the core of the project manager responsibility system. The responsibilities of the project manager mainly include two aspects: first, to ensure that the project is completed in an all-round way with high speed, high quality and low consumption according to the specified objectives; The second is to ensure that each process is optimized to the greatest extent. According to the Measures for the Administration of the Qualification of Project Managers in Construction Enterprises, the project manager shall perform the following duties: ① To implement the relevant laws, regulations and policies of the state and the government where the project is located, and implement various management systems of the enterprise; (2) Strict financial system, strengthening financial management, and correctly handling the interests of the state, enterprises and individuals; (3) The project manager is responsible for the implementation of the project contract; (4) Effectively control the project construction, implement relevant technical specifications and standards, actively popularize and apply new technologies, ensure quality and time limit for a project, realize safe and civilized production, and strive to improve efficiency. The above is stipulated by the state, and all construction enterprises can formulate more detailed systems according to the actual situation, such as: a, scientifically organize and manage the resources such as people, money and materials entering the project site; B, supervise and manage the progress, quality, safety, cost and civilized construction of contracted projects; C, coordinate the relationship between subcontractors, solve the problems in construction in time, and ensure the performance of the contract signed with the company (or branch).

(2) Defining the rights and powers of the project manager is the condition and means to ensure that the project manager can take responsibility, so the scope of power must be defined according to the responsibility requirements of the project manager. These rights should be granted by the legal representative of the enterprise and clearly stipulated by the system and contract. The Measures for the Administration of the Qualification of Project Managers in Construction Enterprises also stipulates the management authority of project managers: ① setting up a project management team; (2) As the representative of the legal representative of the enterprise, handle the external relations related to the project undertaken and accept the entrustment to sign relevant contracts; (3) to guide the production and operation activities of the project construction, and to allocate and manage the production factors such as manpower, capital, materials, machinery and equipment entering the project; (4) Select the construction team; ⑤ Reasonable economic layout; ⑥ Other management powers granted by the legal representative of the enterprise. In addition, in order to ensure the realization of enterprise interests, enterprises can make more detailed restrictions, such as: in terms of business decision-making and production command, project managers can have the power to uniformly allocate and use people, money and materials on the construction site.

(III) Implementing the project manager responsibility system The so-called project manager responsibility system is to determine the relationship between the project manager and the enterprise in the form of a project contract according to the principle of economic responsibility system, and to operate according to the operating mechanism of the enterprise, so that the project manager can fulfill his rights and obligations in the whole process of project operation and effectively organize and manage the project. It should be said that this responsibility system is a very effective way for enterprises to strengthen the management of project managers. On the one hand, this responsibility system gives the project manager certain power, and more importantly, it increases his responsibilities and obligations, fully affirming the creative work of the project team members. The project manager responsibility system can enhance the sense of crisis and urgency of project team members and implement the project manager responsibility system. Project managers and team members have a strong sense of crisis. Only by renewing and accumulating knowledge can they adapt to the needs of the new situation. If the project manager can't finish the tasks of his superiors, his income decreases and his team members are dissatisfied, no one will want to engage in projects with you again and face the possibility of being dismissed. Team members are in danger of being eliminated in future projects if they don't work hard and are not serious and responsible. The formation of this mechanism puts pressure on team members with high or low academic qualifications. Driven by interests and responsibilities, everyone works hard to realize self-worth.

Second, establish and improve.

Evaluation, incentive, restraint and supervision mechanism In order to further improve the project manager responsibility system, construction enterprises must establish a set of evaluation, incentive, restraint and supervision mechanisms for project managers, thus forming a relatively complete project manager management system.

(I) Establishment of project manager evaluation mechanism To implement the project manager responsibility system, it is necessary to establish a comprehensive performance evaluation standard for project managers and a relatively complete, scientific and standardized index system composed of several indicators to measure the management level of project managers. These index systems are composed of many aspects, such as the project quality managed by the project manager, whether the construction period is completed on time, whether there are any safety accidents, economic benefits, creating excellence cup, the evaluation of the project by Party A (the builder or user), the evaluation of the project manager, etc. The enterprise shall form a corresponding evaluation team to evaluate the project manager once a year and make a comprehensive evaluation against the index system. A comprehensive understanding of the status of project managers will also help outstanding project managers to stand out.

(B) the establishment of incentive mechanism can enhance the confidence of project managers. No matter what industry you are in, it is definitely the best way for enterprises to strengthen management to motivate employees effectively and timely. On the one hand, the establishment of incentive mechanism for project managers can fully reflect their own value, on the other hand, it can stimulate their professionalism in pioneering, practicing and innovating, and enhance the project manager's sense of responsibility and mission to the company and the project. In addition to material incentives, spiritual incentives are also essential for project managers. Commending those outstanding project managers with comprehensive evaluation not only inspires their morale, but also allows more project managers to learn from them.

(3) Improving the constraint mechanism of project managers can be considered from the following three aspects: first, the constraint of laws and regulations, the project manager's operating object is engineering projects, and the project manager must abide by the laws and regulations promulgated by the state; The second is the constraint of the enterprise, the project manager must implement the relevant rules and regulations and management measures of the enterprise, and the third is the constraint of the society. Through the evaluation and supervision of the project by the supervision department, Party A and other departments, the code of conduct of the project manager is supervised and restricted. Transferred from project managers' alliance.

(4) Improve the supervision mechanism of the project manager. Because of the special position of the project manager, it determines the guiding role and radiation role of the project manager in the construction management team. To supervise and manage the project manager well is to grasp the key of the construction management team, which can play the role of managing a person well, bringing a group of people well and influencing a group of people. On the other hand, if we lose the management and supervision of the project manager, it will inevitably lead to misconduct and serious consequences in fish begins to stink at the head. In view of the actual situation of poor supervision, enterprises should establish a scientific and effective supervision and restriction mechanism and improve supervision measures.

Third, strengthen the comprehensive quality construction of project managers.

The comprehensive quality of the project manager determines the success or failure of the project to a great extent, so strengthening the comprehensive quality construction of the project manager is a very important content of project manager management.

(1) Strengthening the professional concept of project managers Enterprises should pay attention to cultivating project managers' concepts of self-reliance, overall situation, development and integrity. Self-reliance is to get rid of the idea of dependence and establish the concept of self-reliance and self-management; The overall situation is to look at problems, think about problems and find ways from the overall interests; Development is to get rid of the idea that a small victory is perfect; Honesty means respecting professional ethics, and the cultivation of these concepts has a very important impact on the development of project managers themselves.

(2) Strengthen the legal concept of the project manager. The Construction Law stipulates that the construction project manager must hold relevant certificates; At the time of bidding, the construction unit also has clear requirements for the qualification level of the personnel to be the project manager of the bidding project, and it is required that the qualified project manager specified in the bidding must be in place after winning the bid. The project manager should strictly abide by various legal measures promulgated by the state, concentrate on project management, improve the project management level, and put an end to the phenomenon that the project manager is not in place only by lending the project manager qualification certificate.

(3) Strengthening the construction of the project manager's own ability Due to the complex characteristics of the building, the project will face various conflicts and problems in the implementation process, which is a huge challenge for the project manager. A qualified project manager should not only play a role in project planning, organization, guidance, construction, process and control, but also have other abilities, such as coordination ability, personnel management ability, ability to handle pressure and solve problems. The continuous strengthening of these abilities will help the project manager to better complete the project management and control.
