AI in Project Management: Best Practices From Our Project
Business intelligence has always captivated me, naturally leading to an interest in artificial intelligence. However, it wasn’t until I read the 2019 PM Network article “Brain Power,” about how machine learning could transform decision-making in project management, that I felt AI was within reach. I decided to learn more to be ready when the right opportunity arose.
The right one arose at the end of 2021, when PMI Sweden President Katarina Strömberg supported my suggestion for a follow-up interview with two of the original article’s subjects—Geetha Gopal and Bruno Rafael Santos. The follow-up interview discussed how the pandemic and digital disruption impacted AI interest and maturity. It marked the very beginning of this success story.
What followed was a global project involving 25 countries, 27 PMI chapters, 34 project managers, and more than 2,300 survey respondents from 129 countries. Equally important was the support from thought leaders, influencers in AI in project management, academics, and AI experts worldwide.

I share this story to hopefully inspire others to pursue their own dreams and passions. As one of my role models, IKEA founder Ingvar Kamprad, said, “Most things remain undone—glorious future.” There is still so much to do, especially surrounding AI, so dream big and aim high!
