During project execution, the project manager must both manage and lead. Consider the following actions. Which action best demonstrates leadership-energizing people toward a shared vision-rather than management activities like planning, monitoring, or controlling work?
Motivating team members to achieve a shared project vision.
Identifying potential risks and developing contingency plans.
Tracking progress against the project plan and making necessary adjustments.
Creating comprehensive project plans and defining tasks and timelines.
Leadership in project management involves inspiring and motivating team members to work towards a common vision and goals. Motivating team members to achieve a shared project vision reflects leadership because it focuses on influencing and guiding people. The other options are associated with management functions: creating comprehensive project plans and defining tasks and timelines involve planning and organizing; tracking progress and making adjustments pertains to monitoring and controlling; identifying potential risks and developing contingency plans is part of risk management. While these management activities are important, they do not primarily demonstrate leadership.
