DESIGNING A PROJECT FOR A NEW ROLLER-COASTER EXPERIENCE2
Part A
As a project manager, I have to possess a certain number of skills, which would be
helpful for me to manage different kind of projects over which I would be assigned by different
companies. Based on a personal analysis of my skills, the certain strengths and weakness have
been formed, which I could describe accordingly.
The strengths that are possessed by me as a project manager are:
1. I have a strong sense and power of communication based on which I am able to
communicate with my team members openly. I have understand their thoughts and help them in
solving critical problems, which would be in relation to any projects. Based on having a proper
communication skill, I am able to keep a good track over the working progress of my tasks and
measure their progress at different pre-defined stages.
2. I also own a great skill to set a certain goal based on which I am able to determine the
assumed outcomes and desired results. Based on setting up of the goals for the project, I am then
able to organize myself and set out the required activities, which needs to be put in order for the
accomplishment of the project.
3. In most of the project case that I have handled, I have mostly supported my team
members in getting through most of the activities, which are performed within the project. I also
possess a strong skill based on which I have been able to encourage my team members in getting
over certain tasks proactively so that we can move on to the next set of related activities
accordingly.

4. I also possess a skill of mixing up with people in my team from diverse backgrounds.
The amount of diversity in a team is highly required since it allows for getting most of the tasks
to be done in proper manner. People from diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds are able to
showcase their skills over any aspect of a project. Hence, I am able to mix up with them rapidly
and establish a friendly atmosphere that helps me to work confidently over any project.
While, I possess these strengths, there are certain weaknesses that are possessed by me
while dealing with complex projects:
1. I lack a certain form of leadership, which is the primary key in gluing up the team in a
proper manner. In some cases, when the project would be facing some complications, I have
often lacked certain skills on commanding over the project team. In such situations, I generally
approach to my seniors for helping me and my team over the particular area.
2. I have lost my temper at certain stages of project management over certain projects. In
such situations, I might have not communicated properly with my team members, which had
further dismantled the situation. This can be considered as a major weakness since project team
members would need to be dealt in a proper manner and support them in case of any errors or
project-related complications.
