    B) Comparison between the conventional business manager’s competency and


    construction organization’s manager’s competency

    The competency profile of manager of construction organization can be differ in many ways due
    to the importance of quality constructions and other complications that are associated with
    construction industries. Some of the major traits are listed below.

     The construction manager should be more careful while monitoring the construction work
    because he can’t afford any little mistake too because if there was some fault in
    construction and he put blind eye on it then this may result in loss on life whereas in
    conventional business organization manager’s ignorance can only result in loss of money
    which can be recover
     Construction manager’s should have ability to take the right discussion on spot because
    sometime he doesn’t have much time to think because whole process in dependent on his
    discussion and being right also possess great importance because mistake and wrong
    decision can only indicated when it’s too late and they already made their ugly impression
    whereas in other business many times there is time to redo the mistakes.
     Since the construction project are much longer than other business project so taking right
    initiative to start project is most important because once the project started you can’t
    change the place of project nor you can move your building from some place to other.
