Abstract
A panel position statement is presented. The author comments that if sociology is more important to success than technology, then the manager has to be principally involved in managing the project´s sociology. She/he needs to spend the most time and energy on tasks like team formation, hiring, motivation, bureaucracy reduction, workplace redesign and tuning, and environmental improvement. The author discusses one particular aspect of project sociology requiring special attention: the role of the team. Guidelines for team building are considered
