I believe that communication and planning are the most important skills to have out of all the skills that one project manager requires to succeed. Project managers have to communicate with different levels like teams, control board or executives and it is not only verbal but written as well. The reason why I put communication and planning together is because there are deadlines for all projects and therefore project managers must have a very effective strategy to achieve their aim. In order to meet the deadlines, project managers effective communication skill will help all his/her employees and team members understand what is exactly expected from them and how to approach different projects.
