and/or any other thing that you felt was worthy of your understanding in
each assigned textbook chapter.Your initial post should be based upon
the assigned reading for the week, so the textbook should be a source
listed in your reference section and cited within the body of the text.
Other sources are not required but feel free to use them if they aid in
your discussion.
Also, provide a graduate-level response to each of the following questions:
- Discuss
the concept of emotional intelligence as it relates to the duties of
project managers. Why are the five elements of emotional intelligence
so critical to successful project management? - Consider
the profile examples on project leaders Sir John Armitt and Jim Watzin
from the chapter. If you were to summarize the leadership keys to their
success in running projects, what actions or characteristics would you
identify as being critical? Why? What are the implications for you when
you are given responsibility to run your own projects?
