Definition of profiles and roles:

This research presents definitions of possible guidelines for human resources in project management demonstrating the possible profiles and roles within an Information Technology organisation. Organisations that aim to improve their processes by taking project management into account need to align tasks within these processes with a team that has the skills and profile for this activity. The main objective of this research was to present the results of defining roles by competences for employees to take on certain activities in projects which contributes to people management by identifying the types of profiles that leaders need to have for each type of role. What's more once you know what each employee's position and competencies are it's even easier to remunerate these members of organisations. The methodology used is a case study that followed the definition of the roles and competences required for positions within software development projects. The research aimed to cover a little-researched area that is a very important role for people management within any organisation.
