Project managers play the lead role in planning, executing, monitoring, controlling, and closing out projects. A software project manager is the most important person inside a team who takes the overall responsibilities to manage the software projects and play an important role in the successful completion of the projects. The tasks of a project manager are classified into two major types: Project planning and Project monitoring and control. They are accountable for the entire project scope, the project team and resources, the project budget, and the success or failure of the project. In other words, he defines the requirements of the project, builds the project team, lays out a blue print for the whole project including the project scope and parameters, clearly communicates the goals of the project to the team; the targets to be achieved, allots budget to the various tasks to be completed. The presentation gives wider perspective on the topic.
