A Project Manager needs good people skills to be a leader. Project Managers need to exude confidence not arrogance, but have humility. True respect is earned remember that. You are the captain of the ship running the project with your team members looking to you for guidance. It’s a team effort that everyone’s contribution no matter how small it may look plays an important part of the project. You as a Project Manager need to create that atmosphere in your team.
It’s your choice on the approach to delivering a successful on-time projects. Remember you might have to work with these people again unless you’re a consultant or contractor who moves on and does not care how success is achieved.
In closing a good Project Manager does not have to come across as a person to fear. Be the Project Manager with charisma that everyone wants to work for and be around. Respect goes a long way and people will watch your back when you are respected.
I have seen an dealt with many arrogant Project Managers that give the profession a black eye.
