How to build trust as a project manager?

Blog about project management

One of the most important tasks of a project manager is to establish trust within the team and towards the client.
Trust cannot be built if the project manager does not actively work on developing their own project management brand within the project.

But what does it take?

  • Expertise: The project manager needs to have a good understanding of their profession and be able to represent it throughout the project.
  • Reliability: If you promise something, always deliver on that promise.
  • Self-reflection: If you make a mistake, acknowledge it and make changes.
  • Emotional intelligence: Treat your team the way you would like to be treated.
