They survey project managers and other project professionals such as PMO leaders and hiring managers to determine what skills project managers should have to be useful in today’s project environment. These latest changes were developed following a Job Task Analysis (JTA) study which evaluated new industry trends andreflect the evolving role of project managers today.
