What are the roles of project managers?

  1. Focusing on long-term strategic goals

  2. Managing daily non-project tasks

  3. Focusing on the immediate needs of the project and controlling its execution

  4. Solely to provide resources to the project

The correct answer is: Focusing on the immediate needs of the project and controlling its execution

The correct answer is focusing on the immediate needs of the project and controlling its execution. This is because project managers are responsible for overseeing the project from start to finish, ensuring that it stays on track, meets its goals, and is completed within the specified time frame and budget. They are mainly focused on the day-to-day running of the project, addressing any issues that arise, making decisions, managing resources, and coordinating the efforts of the project team to achieve successful project completion. Option A is incorrect because while project managers may contribute to long-term strategic goals, this is not their primary role. Option B is incorrect because project managers do not typically manage daily non-project tasks. Option D is incorrect because project managers do more than just provide resources; they are responsible for the overall success of the project.
