ABSTRACT: Project management includes planning, organizing, monitoring and controlling all aspects of the project, and motivating all involved in achieving project goals in a safe way, within planned costs, time and according to the given perfomance. According to world forecasts, in the future, project management will be one of the most important and most attractive professions. The leader is the key person in project management, who, with the support of his associates, team and home organization, proposes or makes all important decisions about the project. The tasks of the project leader are extremely complex, responsible, stressful and influential and can not be performed by improvisations, experience or exclusively with intuition. World experiences confirm that project leaders should be people of special traits, who have a set of knowledge, skills, experiences, and natural traits. In the paper, research is presented on the professional profile and characteristics that should be possessed by project leaders, as well as all other personnel engaged in the field of transport infrastructure projects management. The activity of relevant international institutions and associations dealing with certification of personnel in the field of project management was also analyzed. On the basis of the comparative analysis, it was pointed out the differences in the trends and approach to the management of transport infrastructure projects.
