What is a Project?
The PMBOK defined the project as: A temporary
endeavor to create a unique product, service or
result.
So, a project is characterized by:
1.
Time frame: Definite start and definite end.
Project end is defined by either project
completion or project termination.
2.
Unique output: It produces a unique product,
service or result..A project output is not
repetitive.

They will not allow exaggerated and unrealistic project time and
cost estimates from project team experts either during project
planning process or project executing process.
Accordingly, they can apply the Analytical Management.
Analytical Management: Making technical decisions for the
project which the Project Manager communicates in turn to the
team. Interview-style communication where the Project Manager
asks questions and receives answers from project team is the
best for such Project Managers.

.Technical project Managers do not apply delegation as they think they are
better than others whereas delegation is one of the most successful project
management styles (patterns).
Delegation: It is a management style where the Project Manager defines goals
then gives the team members the authority to perform their tasks.
.They
will not have enough time to spend on the overall project planning, progress
and solve raising issues and take decisions on time as the project INTEGRATOR.

As a Project Manager, you must have team members who have the
necessary know-how and technical details. They must be responsible
for the technical decisions and resulting progress.

As a Project Manager, you must not spend your time on technical
details or resolving technical problems (avoid micromanagement)
and remember always that you manage a team as INTEGRATOR for the
project components into a cohesive hole. Let your team handle their
tasks according to their experience and expertise.
