Welcome to the launch issue of The Project Manager, the magazine for project managers and other project people.
In our lead article, Project Management South Africa (PMSA) chief executive officer Taryn van Olden takes a look at what constitutes a mature project management environment, and presents a compelling case for the importance of project management in keeping the bottom line in good shape.
Next, former PMSA CEO Elmar Roberg examines the role of the project manager and delves into the nuances of project, programme and portfolio management from the perspective of the Project Management Institute (PMI).
Following on from this assessment, the University of Pretoria's Dr Yvonne du Plessis focuses on a too often neglected aspect of project management: the skill of managing human resources.
