Our Project Managers are critical for keeping our work on track. We have a specific project management methodology honed over many years of experience.
🏅 Principles of Project Management at Cantilever
- Curiosity. Project managers need to be the experts on what is going on and why. If they are not technical, they should be curious learners and always asking questions.
- Clarity. Project managers need to communicate clearly to all parties involved.
- Proactivity. Our
Project Managers need to be constantly scanning their projects for things that might be off-track.
- Accountability. A
Project Manager is free to handle any task they possibly can handle within running a project, even things outside their job description.
