“The role of system analyst as a project manager”
In a group, there must be a leader that govern the group in order to have organization. To be an effective leader, you must have a leadership skills and leader is not only about commanding the members but he must also be a good follower. To be a project manager is not easy because they plays an important role for the success of the project.
In order to understand the role of a system analyst as a project manager, we need to go out, explore and interview people that has a deeper knowledge about being a project manager. We interview Ma’am Sharon Lei M. Molantas which is a project manager of City Information Technology Center(CITC) ofDavao City Hall Australia Sharon is more than 15 years in service and we can see that they are one of the best in Davao
To be a project manager is not easy and it requires a leadership skill. Leadership skill is a skill that able the leader to govern the group effectively. He/she must know how to discipline his/her group and he also need to know how to lead them. You also need to have a managing skills in order to organize the work. Leadership is the key to have a successful output. When you will be appoint as a leader, you need to accept it with all your heart because if you don’t feel to be a leader or manager, you will not be effective as a leader. Leadership will be effective if the leader know how to follow. If you will be a leader, be a good follower so that your member will respect you not only because you are a leader but also they will respect you as a person. I can say that the main role of a system analyst as a leader is to lead and to correct.
Manager is not only to govern the people or the member. Another role of a manager is to insure the success of the project. If there is no manager to govern the member, the chance to achieve success is lower that those who have manager. The manager is very useful especially if you have a big and complicated project. Just imagine a school without a principal or director, it will really not work
To be a project manager, you may or may not be involve in the coding part of the system. It will depend on the situation of the project because there is an instances that will not participate in the coding part of the system so that the manager can focus his/her attention to the member of the group. Because of the focus of a manager, he/she will be effective at work and in the project. If the project is just small and you just have a few members, the manager can participate in the coding part so that the project will be finish at the deadline.
One role of the system analyst as a project manager that I like the most is that manager act as a shield to its member. We can’t be perfect every time and there will a point during your development time, some of your member can make mistake and your department will be blame for the damage that has been done. The manager now will act as a shield to its member not just to get sympathy and respect but because you need to understand that you are the man in charge and responsible for your member. Protection is one of the things that manager can give to its member so for this, you can see that the role of a system manager is not easy. You need to be a hero sometimes and you also need to be a bad guy sometimes because another role of a manager is to discipline and for that, you don’t have to tolerate you member always.
Another role of a system manager is to minimize pressure without sacrificing too much of the resources. Almost all man with a pressure in their chest, they can’t be effective during the operation. They can commit errors compare to the situation that they are calm. To minimize pressure as possible will allow the member to have a good and accurate output. The manager is not always concern about how fast the system to take in order to make it finish but you need to consider also the quality of the system. The less the quality of the system, the more problem that may occur but if you will also consider always to put them in a way that they are so relax then it can be bad also. We need to take note that time is money and the longer the duration of making the system will be, the higher the cost that you can get. In short, you need to balance things and that’s another role of a system manager. Balancing every situation is not that easy because you need to consider a lot of things like time over quality and cost over the duration. Without a balance is impractical to do because if you are strong to this then you will be weak at any aspect but if you balance the things around you, you can be strong in some manner and you will cover your weak aspect or weak spot of the situation.
To motivate your member is also a role of system manager. The system analyst is always under pressure and the role of system manager, he/she will prevent them from falling and surrendering because of the pressure and for that, you need to motivate and encourage them and push them so that they will never quit. In developing system, both mind, body and emotion plays a big role in making project and the task of system manager is to prepare the mind, body and emotion from collapsing.
If you are a system analyst, you need to identify your member and that’s another role of a system analyst as a project manager. If you know your member then you can understand them and predict their reaction and if you identify them then it will be easy for you to govern them.
To sum it up, being a system analyst as a project manager is not that easy. You need to consider your member in every aspect of development, you need to have a good leadership, a great motivator, defender and a good follower. To be a project manager is about controlling power and not abusing them.
