2. Analyze the way in which Tim Aston, the young project manager, was exercising his skills with respect to his project staff and the functional managers. Discuss Tim Aston’s effectiveness in light of the three core skills you identified.
3. Analyze the degree of support Tim was provided by his company: What kind of support did Tim require, and to what extent did he receive it?
4. Make recommendations to both the senior executives (the company) and Tim Aston, relative to personnel motivation and resource allocation, etc., in order for Tim to be an effective project manager.
