Sažetak
A project manager is a person between the management and technology and who takes care that engineers and researchers achieve their technological goals. Furthermore, there is a lot of evidence that projects mostly fail because of a lack of critical project management competencies (CPMC). This paper therefore seeks to find a critical set of behavioral competencies for the successful management of construction projects. In order to do this, we adopted the competencies defined by ICB 3.0 from the International Project Management Association (IPMA) and issued a survey to project management professionals in south-eastern and central European countries. The survey showed a greater significance and level of behavioral competencies for more experienced project managers. Although behavioral competencies represent a less measurable competence, the research results demonstrated they are the most relevant competencies for success in complex projects. Based on our results we suggest a framework for measuring and evaluating behavioral competencies in construction projects, which could assist companies in selecting an appropriate project manager. At the end we present some guidelines for measuring behavioral competencies.
