    Heroes and Egos

    The document contrasts the behaviors of heroic and egotistical project managers with balanced project managers. Heroic and egotistical PMs take on too much work personally, seek attention and credit, and blame others for failures. Balanced PMs effectively delegate work, give credit to the team, support the team, and lead through reasonable behavior and open communication.
