Synopsis:

Project managers are at the forefront of managing projects impacted by disruption and innovation. New ideas and technologies such as artificial intelligence and digitalization require PMs to apply nimble and agile thinking in their approach to project management. As private firms and public bodies respond to new and emerging market demands, projects can be derailed by the swift changes required by the market to address new and emerging ideas associated with disruption and innovation.

Join us in the discussion of some useful tools to leverage disruption and manage change in a rapidly evolving environment.
