Machine Learning and other AI: Are You Ready? Machine Learning is the latest 'hot' title in computing and Artificial Intelligence. It sounds new but is influencing your life already. Machine Learning and AI will affect more and more of your life as they mature and more enabling technologies intersect with them. Machine Learning will change many disciplines and careers, overcoming scale issues, enabling better knowledge and insights, and augmenting many professions. Are you ready? 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.

Project Management and Developing Our Future Generations The growth of the project management industry over the past ten years has led to over 40% of developed countries' GDP being spent on new changes and deliveries. The pool of successful project managers has become smaller, and so a concept has gathered momentum: Introducing PM to students at an earlier age to allow them to better understand the importance of the behaviour and ethics needed for their own future careers.

The Value Driven Project Manager This presentation addresses how core values are formed at the individual level and at the organizational level. It will also address how these values drive personal performance and influence the effectiveness of the professional project manager. Is project management a profession or simply a methodology? While the debate continues, there is no doubt that a well-trained, experienced, professional project manager will make a meaningful addition to any organization. The career-minded project manager is an authority on achieving success, and continually practices and develops the skills necessary to overcome any challenges encountered during the process. This video offers keen insight into how core values are formed at the individual level and at the organizational level, and how these values drive personal performance and influence the effectiveness of the professional project manager.

The Mission-Critical Project Manager - Why Our PMs Need (more) Critical Thinking and Problem-Solving Skills Many project managers have achieved mastery of the "tools of the project management trade": they are great planners, effective managers of their project teams, heroic firefighters - in short, they are competent in delivering projects. However, the number of people who can identify a problem, articulate a strategy to address it, *and* translate that strategy into reality is very limited in most organizations. Today, the ability to deal with ambiguity and complexity, acknowledge and solve new problems, and deal with a high degree of uncertainty is in high demand. For such challenges there is little to be found in the conventional 'PM Toolbox.' Adding creative and critical thinking skills is a rewarding opportunity and can make the difference between being just another PM or a truly strategic asset.

The Agile PMO: Value-Driven Agile Project Management Conclusive research findings show that approximately 50% of PMOs are disbanded in two years. Yet, we repeat the same mistakes in our PMO implementations wasting money, resources and most important wasting time. In this presentation we focus on the value driven PMO as an integrator, enabler, differentiator, and change agent in business, development and the organization in general. We analyze the essential model for PMO value enablement which answers: • What is the strategic role of the value driven PMO in business • How to ensure effective streamlined delivery • How to effectively select and prioritize opportunities • How to manage resource allocation Key take away: a PMO must deliver value to the organization constantly. Value isn't templates, tools and processes. Rather, it is the ability to finish the right projects faster! This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs.
