Project Owner should be renamed to Project Manager

In standard project management methodologies, there is no project owner. There is a Project Sponsor & Project Manager.

The Project Manager is really the owner of the project.

Can you change the 'Project Owner' in all data fields including the project health panel - to Project Manager?

I'm sure most project managers would agree!

Thank you for the submission! We think this is a good enhancement to the Workfront platform overall and this product area in particular!

 

Workfront currently prioritizes large-scale, foundational enhancements such as the new Reporting experience and changes to the core data model, so this item does not fit in our near-term roadmap. As such, I am marking this as Declined now, but we'll keep this in our backlog for the improvements for this area so that we can revisit the decision in the future.
