Thanks for the list of essential and desired skills required for a project manager. In my opnion decision making is an important skill because if the project manager relies heavily on the project methodologies to achive his project objective he is bound to miss out on the business objective of executing a project.80% of the time of project manager is spent on communication so verbal and written communication skills are the most essential.
