AI in Project Management: Enhancing Efficiency and Decision-Making
Details
AI is no longer “future tech”; it is a real tool project teams are using today to work faster, reduce risk, and make better decisions.
In this online PMW session, Dr. Shih-Yu Chang will share practical, real-world ways project and program managers can apply AI across everyday workflows: from prioritizing tasks and forecasting schedule risks to improving resource planning and trade-off decisions.
You will also get a clear, non-technical overview of the technologies powering today’s AI tools (LLMs, RAG, and multimodal AI), plus case-driven examples that connect directly to project outcomes and ROI.
You’ll leave with actionable guidance to help you evaluate readiness, identify high-impact use cases, and take the next step with confidence.
The talk will wrap with actionable steps to help you assess readiness and confidently start adopting AI in your project workflows.
