The subject of sustainability has received a lot of attention in recent times. It is slowly moving from understanding it as a global phenomenon to action what we can, as professionals in business and industry, do in the larger interest of preparing for the future. For Project Managers this is a unique opportunity to contribute beyond the immediate objectives outlined for their projects.
As part of our knowledge sharing, our team enjoys looking toward the future of the project management world. We reflect on the past and forecast trends in project management to help project managers prepare for what the coming year will bring. As 2021 ends and we look forward to 2022, we are again forecasting the trends we see that will affect project management practitioners. From advances in technology to advances in project management practices, the world is constantly changing, and project managers need to know how to stay caught up. What trends in technologies, industries, and best practices are going to affect project managers, and how can project managers prepare for them? Attendees will leave with a better idea of how to navigate coming changes.
SMEs are changing their business models in order to adapt to the post-pandemic scenario. Solutions are needed to give them the support they need to survive. One such extremely effective and contemporary solution can be the adoption of Agile methodologies.
Agile, the approach that was created to replace Lean Six Sigma in 1970, is now 'scaling-up' by reverting to Lean Practices like Kanban, Theory of Constraints, Voice of Customer, Kaizen, etc. Agile Manufacturing started decades before the Software development versions of Agile, and it is still ahead. Looking at the achievements and evolution of Agile Manufacturing, we can hopefully forecast how the popular version of Agile introduced by the Manifesto for Agile Software Development will evolve. This webinar is a comparison of Enterprise Agile used in Manufacturing and other business domains, like Construction and Health, with the team-based Agile used in Software development.

Each year, the strategy team at the Project Management Institute conducts an assessment of global, long-term trends across a range of key issue areas. Conducted since 2007, this annual report examines and evaluates the global trajectory of major trends in everything from climate change to shifting demographics—and explores how these trends are impacting the world of project management and project professionals.
The old mantra “do more with less” could be just around the corner. The level of uncertainty is paramount for organizations, and there is not a one-size-fits-all strategy that CIOs can follow. Where do CIOs go as a painful 2021 ends and 2022 promises more of the same?
Today’s professionals are now seeking work that is meaningful to them—and aren't afraid to pursue better options if your organization isn't prioritizing their development. Are you increasing your operational readiness for the impact of emerging technologies?
Project managers by nature are process driven, so bringing a PM into the mix of a startup that may not have established processes can be a culture shock. However, project managers can bring immense value to a startup and help the company execute on strategic goals more thoroughly.
In order to keep up with emerging technologies, project management professionals must invest in updating their knowledge and skills on an ongoing basis. Are we about to witness the rise of the domain-specific PM?
As distributed and remote work environments become the norm for many organizations, strengthening workforce engagement is more important than ever. Here is a strategic approach to address issues of separation, context, consistency, support and feedback.
CMOs, PIOs and PMOs, oh my! Does an organization really need all three of these offices, or would a better approach be to merge them? Enter the Alignment Management Office!
A growing number of professionals must recognize that it is necessary for us to understand a core driver for this period of change: multiple technologies, which are evolving and bring with them unique capabilities. Is your workforce prepared for the disruptive change we will all face?
Agile has been “going mainstream” for more than a decade, but supporting evidence was more in the eye of the beholder. Maybe now it’s really happening. A new State of Agile report found growing adoption rates outside of software development and documented success in areas such as visibility and alignment.
The way we work today is increasingly being shaped by artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning. To keep up, we need to understand these technologies holistically—where they add value, and where they fall short.
Organizational leaders often have preconceived notions of what a PMO is. But the PMO of today has evolved a lot from just a few years ago. Is it time to change the name as well?
Organizations that can structure work in a way that allows people—especially those involved in projects and technology—to shape the way they produce value are most likely to experience a sustainable and stable workforce.
We face a pending wave of disruptive innovation and economic market potential. How equipped is the project management profession to handle such strategic initiatives? Are their enough PMs with power skills to meet the demand? How would you respond if asked to handle such an assignment?
The pandemic forced the construction industry to reconsider certain givens about program management best practices. What will program management look like as vaccinations continue and re-openings ramp up? What is the new normal for construction program management?
Diversity, equity and inclusion are finally starting to gain traction as accepted performance drivers of business success. That’s going to result in project teams having to leverage them. Are we ready?
