Where a resource manager can go next

5 destinations recorded, ranked by how much of the target role a resource manager already meets. The closer to the top of Table 1, the less there is to learn.

Resource managers manage resources for all potential and assigned projects. They liaise with the different departments to see that all various resources needs are met, in a timely manner, and communicate any resourcing issues that may impact scheduled deadlines.

Note

How these figures were compiled

Coverage is the share of the target role’s weighted skill requirement a resource manager already meets, counting required skills in full and supplementary ones at 0.35. It is directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. Every entry above opens the full comparison for that move: what carries over, what is missing, and where to start. The full method.
