Pairing the right project manager with your client is important. Having guidelines in place can help make that decision easier. One big consideration is which manager has the capacity and availability to meet the client’s needs. Another method for pairing the right manager with a client is experience. Finding someone who focuses on a specific area that the project and client needs, and assigning them to the client, is a good way to match PMs with clients. Sometimes, however, you can’t match the perfect PM with the client; there are just too many moving parts to make the accommodation. In these situations, it’s comes down to giving the right support to your client and PM—making sure both the client and PM have everything they need to be successful. Matching the right project manager with your client is important. Finding a manager who has the capacity and availability is an important first step. If that’s not feasible, making sure the client and manager are well-supported becomes crucial to the project’s success. --- Featuring Pam Butkowski on The Digital Project Management Podcast Learn more: https://thedpm.com/
