In fact, \"projects differ in many ways, and one size does not fit all,\" so, to ensure project success, practitioners have to adjust their management (and leadership} styles \"to the environment, the task, and the goal, rather than stick to one set of rules\" [2, p. 10]. \"Fourth, innovation literature has come up with two additional roles: the \"champion\" who oversees and sells the project, and the \"innovator\" who mainly explores new ways of doing things [25][27][28]. These roles are, in our view, also critical in other project settings such as large dam construction because, once again, large dams use new technologies and experience high unforeseen technological uncertainty\" \"For instance, Midler [29] suggested that the project manager is a voluntarist and a creative strategist in the exploration phase that becomes scrupulous and realistic at the freezing phase, and transforms into an expeditious fireman in the execution phase. Moreover, in their longitudinal study of six new product development projects, Rekonen and Bjorklund [34, p. 125] found that project managers had to adjust their roles when they transitioned from the front-end phase to the development phase, and thus, they \"need to adapt and respond to the variations between the periods of stability and clarity, and creativity and ambiguity" lrfan, Muhammad, et al. \"Role of Project Planning and Project Manager Competencies on Public Sector Project Success.\" MDPI, Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 29 Jan. 2021, https:iiwww.mdpi.comi2071-1050i1 BB! 142 lihtm. \"The project manager's competency is the measurement of their ability to making quick decisions, and their having knowledge regarding the responsibilities and roles of the project team involved []. Competency involves enacting activities to increase others' abilities to perform the design work of the project, and increase the aptitude, experience, and skills of the team [E]. The workforce should not only be teclmical experts and highly skilled, but should adapt to change, learn quickly, communicate effectively, and develop interpersonal relationships [,]\
