Holding a meeting

In this subsection, we consider the roles and responsibilities of a project manager. It is important to note that a project manager is not necessarily a subject or professional expert in the focus area of the project. For example, a project manager leading a software development doesn’t need to be a computer programmer. The project manager is the person who has overall responsibility for initiating, planning, and executing a project.
