Redefining Productive Project Management in an AI-First World.

Building on Peter Taylor’s bestselling concept of ‘productive laziness’, this presentation traces the evolution from his original book ‘The Lazy Project Manager’ to his latest bestseller ‘The Invisible Project Manager: Why Artificial Intelligence Will Run Tomorrow’s Projects ― Without You’.

Starting by asking the question ‘what if the best project manager didn’t exist?’ this provocative and future-facing manifesto explore the uncomfortable questions about the impact on his profession from the inexorable rise of artificial intelligence.

Traditional project management has created a substantial legacy, but what if project managers aren’t evolving but evaporating? What if success no longer needs a command-and-control human hero at the helm? 

Thanks to the power of AI, the next generation of project delivery won’t be managed, it will be orchestrated, seamlessly, silently, invisibly. It just might be the end of project management as we know it and the beginning of something radically smarter, but will humans still be involved and, if so, how?

The presentation offers an essential and thought-provoking guide to evolution for forward-looking leaders, digital transformation strategists, and change agents who are planning for the long game. 

Are you ready to disappear?

Expect a highly interactive and fun fuelled conversational session.
