Question 1
Project Manager and Team - Roles and responsibility
A team, according to the project size, can be formed by a project manager who has been assigned a specific project to be completed. The project manager has to decides
What work will the team do – Size of the team. What work need to be performed. Goals, objects and target which needs to be achieved should be specified with full clarity.
The people who will do the work - roles and responsibility should be assigned as per the capabilities and then the power and authorities should also be clearly spelt out. Who is suitable for the job?
The procedure & processes that the team will follow to achieve the goal should also be clearly specified at the initial stage of the project only so that all the team members should know what has to be done and how. What are the implicit or explicit norms of the group?
The main responsibility of the project manager is to develop its team which is capable of handling the situation with or without the support of the project manager. In such a situation the team members are likely to be more motivated and thus get highly involved with the project. But only disadvantage in this is the loss of control of the project manager over the team. The manager should give such space and responsibility to its members so that they gain experience which give them confidence required for decision making purpose.
The team leader is responsible with the job of deciding what and how he wants his team to act. He can build an experience team where other team members are seasoned enough to take decisions and handle situations. The past experience of both the leader and members can guide the whole team how to act in a particular situation. Again the leader must have full confidence on his team members so that he can assign them with full authority to decide in the best interest of the project. The leader must take the responsibility of all the acts of the members and supports them when required.
