***This is a PMI-Led Webinar*** Thought Leadership Advisory Council members reflect on a year of PMI thought leadership and share what they are seeing about project success in practice.
Project management is a sophisticated discipline, and the professionals who practice it bring a depth of skills that span methodology, systems thinking, and sustained stakeholder engagement. What the field has not yet done is fully name what the role requires of the person holding it: leadership, exercised not occasionally, but as the defining work of the position
It begins by framing agility as an enterprise level capability driven by continuous change, rapid response, and empowered teams. It then connects these principles to PMI’s Code of Ethics emphasizing that certification holders commit to these standards from the moment they apply.

With digital transformation, AI and more, change is hitting teams harder than ever— and as a project professional, you're the one trying to steady the ship while everyone else is trying to find their footing.
Despite Agile’s promise, nearly half of Agile initiatives still fail due to unclear goals, weak leadership, burnout, and structural misalignment with traditional GRC frameworks.
Complex projects rarely struggle because teams have no information. More often, the challenge is that project information is scattered across meetings, work-management tools, risk logs, emails, status reports, and stakeholder conversations. Technical teams may see tasks, defects, and dependencies, while business stakeholders focus on outcomes, timelines, and value. Sponsors need to understand risks, decisions, and business impact. When these groups do not share a clear view of the project, misunderstandings increase, decisions slow down, and risks can remain hidden until they affect delivery.
The message of the webinar is that ethical memory is essential for modern Agile and project‑delivery professionals, especially when acknowledging the origins of the practices they use daily. The deck emphasizes that commercial failure is not the same as irrelevance, noting that “Agile practices we use every day…did not spring from nowhere in 2001,” and that ethical storytelling requires crediting pioneers whose ideas shaped today’s frameworks even if their ventures did not succeed commercially.
