Before starting a project, one has to form a team. By doing so, one assures that the team has the necessary competence to complete the project. The team must be composed of capable individuals whose abilities compliment and counterbalance each other. The team is composed of the project manager and team members. The project manager may not have the most experience in the field nor the necessary vision, however he must be able to motivate and inspire the team and be capable of communicating with the client. In addition, he must ensure that his team has the necessary resources to operate efficiently. Furthermore, the project manager must be familiar with his strengths and weaknesses, and he has to be able to provide the team with a sense of security and direction. Team management requires the project manager not only to use his managerial and organizational skills, but also his interpersonal skills with each team member in order to successfully manage the team. Therefore, a project manager must be a good communicator, decision maker and must be able to delegate tasks to team members. He must be able to solve conflicts within the team, manage change and motivate team members. All of these skills are necessary to deliver the finished product to the client in a timely fashion, without exceeding the budget or compromising quality. Teamwork is imperative due to the fact that team members share a common goal and they need to motivate each other to successfully and efficiently perform their given tasks. But a good and productive team is not easy to maintain and therefore it takes a lot of effort to survive as such.
