There is a distinction between the skills and competencies needed for the project manager to manage team 

resources versus physical resources. Physical resources include equipment, materials, facilities, and infrastructure. 

Team resources or personnel refer to the human resources. Personnel may have varied skill sets, may be assigned 

full- or part-time, and may be added or removed from the project team as the project progresses. There is some overlap 

between Project Resource Management and Project Stakeholder Management (Section 13). This section (Section 9) 

focuses on the subset of stakeholders who make up the project team.
