What do you think is the most important skill needed to excel as a project support officer?

"A project support officer needs to possess a variety of skills. They need to be very organized so they can stay on top of many moving parts. It's beneficial if they are responsible with money and budgeting. They need to know how to manage their time and lead teams. Most importantly, however, I believe that they need to be strong communicators. In the past, I have had to calm upset clients, soothe unsettled sponsors, stand up to pushy vendors, and motivate distracted team members. Being successful in this role largely depends upon one's ability to communicate clearly and appropriately to a variety of different types of people and groups."
