On Sept. 18, 2012, PMAC Director of Certification, Morley Selver has an upcoming webinar on learning about the operators as part of the project team from a PM perspective. Your operators are the life blood of your project. For a project manager caught up in the frenzied bustle of his or her work, this can be an easy fact to overlook. However, the operator has tremendous influence over project success. The PM who has a deep understanding of the role is in an excellent position to create an effective ally.
