Some problems I feel that project manager can face is the team they choose, time is another problem and communication which everyone mentioned. The team can be a problem because there could be team members that aren’t putting anything on the table which the project manager has advised them to do. Project manager should look in to the people before choosing and if they already choose the member the two option I would give is, replacing them or giving them one more chance if the members doesn’t seem want to change, I would change them. There could lazy members but their could also be members that are quite and they don’t ask for help. This is a communication problem because they don’t ask for help and the project should fix it by checking in with everyone frequently so there wouldn’t be communication problem. This is something that can be fixed easily. Time isn’t easy because it is usually hard to follow a schedule, there could be resource delays, test that take longer, etc. The only thing project managers can do is give an extra hand, come up or tell other members to come up with a back up plan, or try to multitask to get things faster.
