NAVIGATING THE DIGITAL DISRUPTION – THE PROJECT MANAGEMENT WAY

Acceleration of technology and digitization has created a hyper-connected, borderless world with heterogeneous competition killing current & creating unconventional industries. Disruption is the new norm and Program & Project is the best suitable vehicle to ride this wave of change & uncertainty. Environment underscores the need for organizations to consider Project Management as a strategically significant discipline and Project Manager as the bridge between the strategy and reality. Here is my attempt to pick TOP 3 trends for the Digital Project Manager.

AI - The Genie in your bottle

There are conflicting emotions around AI; one perceives it as the promise of future, while other is fearful of its impact on our workplaces, society, and culture. Let’s put things in perspective.

The Challenge: Whether, Portfolio business investment decisions to maximize the ROI or project plans for efficient delivery both are based on estimations of cost, risk, and potential rewards. Agile frameworks (SAFe) recommend ‘Lean Portfolio & Project Management’ approach with iterative and incremental development; Still most of estimates are ‘at best intuitions and at worst wild guesses’ resulting into ‘Best case & hope Based’ plans.

Why? Project interdependencies and external environment results in numerous variables & probabilistic scenarios creating a huge web of ‘What-IF’ conditions. Humans have limited cognitive abilities to produce, store and analyze this large information at will in real time manner.

Turian Labs: Perfecting Design Thinking to Strategic Foresights

‘Empathy is the new strategy’- the mnemonic has been doing the rounds. Empathy is the hallmark of a new method that walked into the strategy domain in the last decade, popularised by the term ‘Design Thinking.’ Design Thinking came in to fill the void created by over-dependence upon data and systems in the industrialized society. Bringing a shift in perspective for defining the ‘real’ problem by zooming in on ‘people’ or ‘stakeholders’ instead of the data alone. One pioneering business organization that was established with this mindset engraved into its soul is Turian Labs. The name, Turian, is derived from the Sanskrit ‘Turiya’, which is the ‘fourth state of consciousness’ as mentioned in Indian philosophy. Turian Labs believes that the world needs holistic thinking today more than ever as knowledge fields are rather too dithered and hence businesses tend to be myopic on several counts.
