Project management is often recognized only as a high-salaried, highly challenging position whereby the project manager receives excellent training in general management.
For projects that are done for external sources, the project manager is first viewed as starting out with a pot of gold and then as having to manage the project so that sufficient profits will be made for the stockholders. If the project manager performs well, the project will be successful. But the personal cost may be high for the project manager.
