Shared Knowledge is Power - Building a Project Management Community As project managers, we do not deliver. We do not cut code or build bridges. We work with teams and stakeholders to ensure that delivery is done. The job of the project manager is about working with people, breaking down barriers, reducing risk, and managing change. To do this well, it's not about 'know what,' it's about 'know how.' Better access to knowledge-and the support to use it wisely-means faster, cheaper, and higher quality projects. At Fujitsu, our vision is about providing the ability for project managers to share knowledge and experience by interacting with other members of the community, in agile and dynamic client-facing environment. Equally as important is taking that knowledge back into the organisation. This supports the individual in developing their professional career, and supports the organization in improving its project delivery. Understanding your customers' changing organisation is difficult enough. Combined with your own ever-changing organisation and the faster pace of agile project delivery, we need to leverage more than just our own knowledge and experience. A strong project management community driven by knowledge sharing may be the answer you need. The size of your organisation is irrelevant - everyone can benefit from a knowledge based community. It is how you shape the community to meet your needs that will deliver the benefits.Learning Objectives Better access to knowledge-and the support to use it wisely-means faster, cheaper, and higher quality projects.

Effective Communication: The Make or Break for Projects Most, if not all, of the problems we encounter while managing our projects can be traced to a communications breakdown of some sort, perhaps even an overall lack of effective communication. When you communicate effectively, you are better able to interface with others and develop stronger relationships. This lively and engaging presentation will help to emphasize the importance of good communication within the project management arena and provide you with the whys, whats, whens and hows of effective project communication.

This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs. Some titles, such as Agile-related topics may qualify for other continuing education credits such as SEUs, or CEUs. Each professional development activity yields one PDU for one hour spent engaged in the activity. Some limitations apply and can be found in the Ways to Earn PDUs section that discusses PDU activities and associated policies. Fractions of PDUs may also be reported. The smallest increment of a PDU that can be reported is 0.25. This means that if you spent 15 minutes participating in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.25 PDU. If you spend 30 minutes in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.50 PDU.

Creating the Most Value with Project Management Metrics This talk will provide guidance for participants who want to implement or improve the metrics they use for project management. The discussion will focus on important distinctions to keep in mind, including the key difference between a project which is tackling something brand new, vs. a project which is only execution oriented, as these will be best served by different types of metrics. It will also look at qualitative versus quantitative metrics and describe when to use which, present a formula for Project Management Effectiveness with the associated metrics, and explain the new ISO 56000 innovation management standard. Key Takeaways: A decision tree structure that shows how to think about project management metrics Project Leader Perspective vs. PMO Perspective Qualitative vs. Quantitative Metrics and the top ones to use The Project Management Effectiveness Formula Dashboards for the PMO The New ISO 56000 Innovation Management Standard

Reinventing Project Management Now! Projects are taking up a more and more prominent role within organizations and the economy as a whole. Simultaneously, the skill set demanded of project management professionals is changing, too. Recently, Gartner claimed that 80% of today's project management tasks will be eliminated by 2030 as Artificial Intelligence takes over. This statistic alone is an indicator that the project management profession will undergo profound changes in the next decade, if not earlier, and we should see this as a call for action to redefine the future of our profession. This session, founded upon some of the latest research conducted in collaboration with HBR, will explore the challenges that the project management profession is facing both from a methodological point of view, as well as the disruptions that are already impacting us, such as AI, robots, and blockchain. If we act now, project management will become one of the most sought-after competencies by organizations in the new world. Understand the disruption that the project management profession is about to face Learn new and simpler project management concepts that will help us become the profession of the future Understand the skills and competencies needed to be successful in the project economy This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs.

The Need for Metrics - Measuring the Ongoing Value of a Project Establishing metrics that measure the project´s value, both during execution and at the end of the project, is critical. Also, the true value of the project may not be known until well after the project has been completed. Executives, clients and stakeholders today are re-thinking the definition of project success. While time and cost considerations are still important, emphasis must also be placed upon the value that the project will deliver. Establishing metrics that measure the project's value, both during execution and upon completion, is critical. The true value of the project may not be known until well after the project has been completed. Each value metric is project-specific and requires different value attributes as selected by the project manager, client, and stakeholders, at the onset of the project. Bear in mind, it is possible that agreement on the value metric(s) may not be reached. In such cases, different value metrics may be required for each individual dashboard audiences. In the near future, each project team will have a specialist assigned with expertise in dashboard design. This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs.
