Research Preview: Changing Approaches to Project Management
Our 2024 research will be published in the next few weeks, but we’d like to share just a few thought-provoking statistics with you in advance.
The Adaptive Organization: A Benchmark of Changing Approaches to Project Management was designed to track some of the key ways in which the practice of project management has been changing over the past several years. Like PMI’s recent Pulse of the Profession study, ours shows a vast increase in the use of hybrid approaches; and it also takes a stab at quantifying organizations’ capability with those approaches, as well as the impact on organizational performance.
For those who have embraced new approaches to project management, whether by adopting agile or hybrid methods, by implementing AI tools, or by contracting with PMaaS providers, the news is positive: new ways of doing project work are linked with improved organizational performance across the board. The profile of the high-performing organization in this study is one that has highly capable team leaders and members using hybrid project management to improve organizational outcomes—and also experimenting with AI to solve problems, and with contract resources or PMaaS to resolve difficult resource management issues.
