Few would dispute that we live and work in a complex world. Organizations are facing heightened competition and ongoing disruption from new technology, market shifts, and social change. Leaders are embracing continuous change to meet challenges based on the capacity to sense and respond to customer and employee behaviors. The PMI 2018 Thought Leadership Series will address the impact of disruptive technologies on a variety of aspects such as people, projects, culture, strategy, and the PMO. During this session, PMI will provide the findings of the reports, which were done in collaboration with Accenture, Capgemini and Forbes Insights. An executive panel will follow, sharing their perspectives on disruption management including how to evolve best practices to next practices—the practices that will carry us into the future.
