The paper presents the most important methods of project management and general management used in small and medium enterprises in the central area of Romania, as well as the degree of their use. Therefore, we have developed a research based on questionnaire in small and medium enterprises from various fields, in order to find how their managers combines these methods and which ones are used more frequently. Unfortunately, our research has found poor or mediocre use of project management methods, as well as most of the general management methods. Training employees of enterprises in project management field, hiring experts in management, or developing post-graduate courses in this field by universities are the most affordable solutions at this time for Romanian small and medium enterprises.
