Abstract

The increasing dynamics of today's business development leads even more to the growth of the need to manage the orders and the requests of organizations through project management. The customer's needs evolve on a daily basis and the only way to progress and stay ahead of times would be to pay attention to each detail and improve constantly. The quality of the results of applying these techniques largely depends on the competence level, attitude and knowledge gained through experience of nowadays’ project managers. In order to better analyze the characteristics of the ideal project manager for these times, this study was undertaken, based on a mixture of information from specialized literature, professional experience and possible forecasts. However, the ingredients of a successful project manager depend widely on the lessons learned from the fairly comprehensive history of project management, combined with the management of the triangle known as human resources, knowledge and time. This study has the mission of bringing out a critical and constructive analysis of what history has provided as a foundation for the development of these professionals, what are the demands of the markets for such roles nowadays and how these things contribute to the sustainable development of organizations.
