General management is a broad subject dealing with every aspect of managing an ongoing enterprise. Among other topics, it includes:
• Finance and accounting, sales and marketing, research and development, manufacturing and distribution.
• Strategic planning, tactical planning, and operational planning.
• Organizational structures, organizational behavior, personnel administration, compensation, benefits, and career paths.
• Managing work relationships through motivation, delegation, supervision, team building, conflict management, and other techniques.
• Managing oneself through personal time management, stress management, and other techniques.
General PROJECT management skills provide much of the foundation for building project management skills. They are often essential for the project manager. On any given project, skill in any number of general management areas may be required. This section describes key general management skills that are highly likely to affect most projects and that are not covered elsewhere. These skills are well documented in the general management literature and their application is fundamentally the same on a project.
There are also many general management skills that are relevant only on certain projects or in certain application areas. For example, team member safety is critical on virtually all construction projects and of little concern on most software development projects.
