The Modern Project Leader: What Skills Do You Actually Need?
In this episode of APMG Connect, we explore what it really takes to lead successful projects today. Spoiler : it's not just about timelines and Gantt charts anymore. From emotional intelligence to strategic foresight, the skillset of the modern project leader is broader and more human than ever before.
As expectations shift and challenges grow more complex, the leaders who thrive will be those who can blend classic project rigour with adaptive, people-centred leadership.
In this discussion, we will explore:
- The evolving role of project leaders in modern organisations
- The shift from command-and-control to influence and collaboration
- Key capabilities every project leader must develop to stay relevant
