Topic – The Future of Project Management Through the Eyes of the Past
Abstract
A Project Management career wasn’t always a career. It once was just a hobby that technical people did in their spare time. How did we get from hobby to career and what’s next? Lee Lambert will spare no detail.
This presentation will share the experiences of someone who has been there through it all. More than 45 years of involvement in PMI has exposed the good, the bad and the ugly. We have gone from basic project scheduling to comprehensive integrated project planning to an Agile explosion that has had the impact of a 7.5 quake on the Richter Scale and we aren’t done yet as AI is threatening to change everything (again)
