Digital Project Manager Top 10 Skills Required
We’ve compiled a list of top 10 skills required for a Digital Project Manager. A Digital PM is a little bit different from a standard Project Manager and is very different from a developer. A Project Manager is not the senior developer – if you need someone to write html or css then you’re after a developer not a PM.
A Project Manager controls, manages and directs projects from start to end. They are more concerned about Time, Quality and Cost than java script or .net code.
