by George Purdy

Project management training books form an integral part of any effective project management training curriculum.

Employees should be managed in such a way that they understand their hidden potential and learn to perform to the best of their abilities. Hence it is very important that project managers are well trained to manage the resources and projects.

The problem with untrained managers is they try to fit all the people into a single mould and see the people with traditional approaches or with preconceived mindsets. This approach does not work in the modern world where people have lot of job opportunities. This may result in higher rate of attrition for the company. Unless project managers are able to see the expectations of the employees, they may not be motivated enough to meet the organisation goals.

Managing people with varied psychological mindsets and with different cultural backgrounds is a very complex issue. In the process, managers are bound to commit mistakes and there will be many pitfalls in this task of managing people. Keeping this in mind, it is very important for the manager to be very well informed and trained in effective people management.
