Abstract

Whether its agriculture, industry, construction, IT or human resources, any organization that seeks to expand its business or to improve its results by launching a new product or service on the market needs a person to manage the resources so that its project reaches its goal and be successful. According to the experts opinion the project manager is a "small" general manager as a project is nothing but a business itself, but which has a start date and a completion date, dates which are established from the beginning. The project manager is the person who is not limited only to design the project, but also deals with the monitoring of its implementation. The purpose of the study is to sketch a portrait of the project manager and highlight which are the main roles in a project.
