Abstract
As we approach 2025, Artificial Intelligence and Generative AI are
fundamentally transforming how projects are planned, executed, and
delivered. This presentation explores the evolving landscape of
AI-enabled project management, focusing on practical applications and
emerging trends that will shape the profession in the coming years.
We'll examine how AI is revolutionizing key project management areas
including risk assessment, resource allocation, and stakeholder
communication. The session will highlight real-world case studies of AI
implementation in project environments, discuss potential challenges and
opportunities, and provide insights into preparing for the next wave of
AI innovations in project management. Project managers will leave with
actionable knowledge about leveraging AI tools effectively and adapting
their practices for an AI-augmented future.
Based on survey feedback from our last session (Inspect and
Adapt) we will ensure that there is more time for questions
and discussion throughout the presentation. We plan to
formally end the presentation and discussion at 7PM but Bob
and Nitin will stay on-line till 7:15PM for any additional
questions.
