A project manager, project manager, project leader or project manager is the person who has
overall responsibility for the planning and successful execution of any project. This title is used in
the construction industry, architecture, software development and in various occupations that are
based on the generation or maintenance of a product, skills, including a large inquisitive capacity,
to detect unspecified assumptions and resolve interpersonal conflicts. One of its most important
tasks is the recognition of the risks that directly affect the chances of success of the project, and
the constant measurement, formal and informal, of said risk throughout the life cycle of the
project. The risk is presented mostly as uncertainty. The successful project manager is the one
who approaches this as the main concern. Most of the problems that affect a project are related in
one way or another to a risk. A good project manager can reduce risks significantly, and often
adheres to an open communication policy, making sure that each significant participant has the
opportunity to express their opinions and concerns. A project manager is responsible for making
the necessary decisions in such a way that the risk is controlled and the uncertainty is reduced to a
minimum. Every decision made by the project manager must involve a direct benefit towards the
project.
