Visit this group The role of the Project manager is being redefined.   Projects generally in the past had a long lead time and adequate resources, and customers were located locally making it easy for the Project manager to focus on a well developed project management process. In a globally connected world projects are no longer constrained to a single location. In today's business environment priorities are constantly shifting, and far deeper insights are needed to take full advantage of emerging trends and match customer preferences. In addition technological changes have accelerated globalization and have intensified competition. The complexity of the project management has dramatically increased. The life time of business cycle is dropping fast. Business processes have to be agile enough as to adapt to changing competitive landscape, and to effectively support fast decision making and execution of strategy.
