# manage project changes — Project Manager

As a Project Manager, 'managing project changes' isn’t about *preventing* change – it’s inevitable! It's about controlling the chaos when things shift. Daily, this means being ready to receive change requests (from clients, team members, stakeholders), quickly understanding their impact on scope, schedule, and budget, and then facilitating a decision. You'll be running mini-impact assessments, often using tools like spreadsheets or project management software (Jira, Asana, MS Project) to visualize the ripple effect. A big part is documentation – updating the project plan, risk register, communication plan *and* ensuring everyone knows what’s changed and why.
