Now the question arises, what is a project manager's best skill? When I was researching this topic,
everyone argued that professional and challenging skills are the best skills for a project manager. I
passed my PMP exam and have a blog, so I'm posting my understanding of the subject. Please note
that all views expressed in this blog post are my own. Power can be defined as influencing
stakeholders to make positive decisions. The mere fact that you are a project manager gives you
positional authority. Examples include formal power, reward power, and punitive power. Many
experts say that compensation and professional authority are the best. I agree that these are better
opportunities for project managers to exert influence. But is he convinced that these two forces are
equally good and that each alone will help the successful completion of the project I lead? After
reading this blog post, I think you'll agree with me too. Official or legal authority As long as you are a
project manager, you have this power. This power comes from the position itself. Team members
know you have authority and will follow your orders. This type of force is found in projected and
strong matrix tissue. Reward authority depends on the formal authority of the project manager.
