I have read opinions from other classmates and I agree and disagree with each one of them at different points. I agree that project management basics of being a good leader and other similar skills are uniform in any industry. However, the knowledge necessary for another industry is crucial. As someone mentioned in a biomedical engineering industry regulations and FDA is a very important factor. Yes the team will have a regulatory body, but that does not demolish the importance of having a project manager with the basic understanding of these regulations. Similarly, in other industries like building a skyscraper, there goes more than just leading the team but the knowledge behind regulations to carry on a safe building is necessary.

Thank you,
