What makes a successful project manager? Certification, understanding technology, using AI? All are important, but there are three things in particular they can do to reinforce their facilitative and human leadership skills.
Do you empower others on your team to take point on creating clarity without overstepping and taking over? You might be like Sue the Scaler, the last of the five ambiguity personas in our series.
Finding information is no longer the obstacle it once was for many project managers. The more difficult challenge is determining which information matters, what it means, and what should be done with it.
When driving clarity decisions, are you clear on who gets a vote, and who doesn’t need to be in the room? If you have a reputation for cutting through the ambiguity noise, you might be like Diane the Driver.
Your past experiences help you manage your next project. But should it be that way? Or should we spend a little more time looking forward, adapting to a changing world and seeking out new and different ways of working?
There's always something new right around the corner. But what if the next great way of working is just a rebranding of an existing framework? What if the latest and greatest is simply the ability to continuously adapt to needs?
Project managers generate an enormous amount of information. The challenge is not generating it; it is finding, connecting and using it when needed. Utilizing chatbots as a working project knowledge base can be invaluable.
Better discovery leads to better project outcomes. This article highlights how Farm Credit Mid-America's PMO) guided its two summer interns in 2026 to deliver high-impact results using surveys in discovery to create actionable solutions.
***PMI and OKR Mentors Led Webinar*** Most organizations don't struggle to define OKRs, they struggle to execute them. PMI and OKRMentors explore how PMOs build the culture that turns strategy into outcomes.
AI is quickly changing how project professionals draft reports, analyze risks, summarize meetings, and communicate with stakeholders. But the real leadership challenge is not simply learning a new tool. It is knowing which parts of the project work can be safely supported by AI, and which decisions must remain firmly in human hands.
An insightful webinar exploring how artificial intelligence is transforming project management
High-risk projects rarely fail because leaders lack intelligence, experience, or data. They fail because critical information becomes distorted as it moves through organizations under pressure. Schedule urgency, optimism bias, authority gradients, and reputational concerns create what I call delivery noise: the gradual distortion of decision-relevant information before it reaches decision-makers.
Explore PMI-sponsored research and practical approaches for leveraging team diversity to strengthen collaboration, adaptability, and project performance.
This webinar confronts a challenge that occurs frequently, but is honestly addressed all too rarely. Projects are often saddled with unreasonable and impossible expectations at the outset, with little practical consideration of what is required in order to be able to succeed. In the face of these challenges, project managers struggle to make sense of what is real, what is possible and what is practical.
