Description: 
What do executives want in their project management practitioners now and in the immediate future? Are you preparing yourself for the next incarnation of the discipline? The world’s industries and practices continue to change and evolve, business leaders want more and differently supportive skills in their practitioners, and you need to stay informed and to keep your skills up to date to remain valuable and relevant.
 

In this engaging and interactive session, you will learn how several leading global research and consulting companies have been partnering with the Project Management Institute to better understand what is changing in the business world and what senior executives desire as new skillsets in their project practitioners. Not lightweight opinions, but detailed, comprehensive, and ongoing studies that clearly articulate the state of project practices will be shared. More importantly, you will understand what the current trends are and be able to educate yourself to remain competitive in the marketplace and be more valuable in your companies. Additionally, you will know the sources of all this information that you can pass along to your management teams (or consultants can pass along to your clients). And that will make you look like a more informed, talented genius than you already are!

Key Takeaways:

• Learn what is changing in the business world

• Recognize what senior executives desire as new skillsets in their project practitioners

• Understand the top five current trends in project management

• Find out how to educate yourself to remain competitive in the marketplace

• Know the sources for this information so that you can share them with your colleagues, clients    and management teams
