Organizations will rely more on project management as the "need to perform trumps survival in 2010," according to a panel of senior executives and consultants.

As organizations switch their focus from surviving to demonstrating business value, metrics will play an increasingly important role in keeping management informed about project performance and its impact on the bottom line and customer service. That’s one of the key takeaways from a list of global project management trends identified by a panel of consultants and senior executives that training provider ESI International gathered in November.
