Abstract
It is not an exaggeration to say that the success of projects depends on the ability of the Project Managers (PM's) regardless of the scale of the project. Recently, the system integrators in Japan are urged to secure a large number of PM's within a short period of time due to the trend of miniaturization and acceleration of system development. It is exactly the competition. Companies ungrudgingly invest in promising employees to make them become PM's. This kind of investment ranges from education programs to accumulation of project management experiences through targeted job rotation. However, recently, In many cases, it proved total failure to invest in unqualified PM candidates.In other words, under the pressure that a large number of PM's are necessary, companies invested in people who do not have the talent of becoming PM's, themselves, however, do possess the great talent as technical specialist or sales person. In this thesis, we focus on the inherent personalities of PM's (those cannot be fostered posterior) and analyse which personalities result in good performance of PM's. This research paper analyse inherent qualification for PM's through top performance project managers survey in NTT DATA CORPORATION
