I’m looking forward to the upcoming Bath Digital Festival. https://bathdigitalfestival.co.uk/

Artificial intelligence (AI) is pervasive: decisions made by AI influence our choices and our lives every day, often without us realising. These decisions, driven by algorithms, are changing society. What does this mean for us as project managers, and how should we adapt? What is AI? What do we mean by AI? First, we must distinguish between classic or pure AI (‘thinking computers’) and applied AI (the application of specific algorithms to develop systems that exhibit machine intelligence).

Today is a busy day – as is every day in my life as a consulting project and programme manager. I start the day responding to emails and checking the diary, attending video conference calls, checking progress of actions and agreeing new actions. I then get together with my PMO to review progress updates from our team and suppliers. We update the schedule, and extend our plans into the next phase of work.
