The association for the big conversation of project management is around the future and they are projecting the future. Also, they even outline several factors that are reshaping all the ways that project managers will work in the upcoming years ahead. By the gradual progress of this conversation, more and more valuable pieces of information have been gathered regarding how this might affect the day to day lives of the project managers out there.

Gradually, the people are finding themselves in a more chaotic and more complex situation and it is much required that these situations should be probed and responded accordingly. And for this, some novel practices need to be developed. Moreover, another important factor is the ‘adaptability’ for the profession of project management as an outcome.

Some of the major findings in the field of project management profession include:

Everything is regarded as a project!

All organizations out there are becoming more and more reliant on the projects for delivering what they do. The project management team, non-project specialists are all spending more of their time on the projects for delivering the desired results. This can be regarded as a projecting of work and it is a symptom of the revolutionary change in how the work is carried out in general. Basically, the profession of project management is all about change and thus it is a big opportunity for the project managers. Also, it may bring forwards some challenges as most business starts running as some important and continuous process.

The working culture is constantly changing and evolving:

Organizations out there are creating more and more open cultures for the sake of innovation purposes. For instance, various car manufacturers are partnering with other product manufacturers if they tend to share the same values and objectives. One of the major factors for this is upraising the level of competition elsewhere.

The economy and the company’s platform has brought some considerable changes in the way peoples are working and the various ways they tend to interact with other businesses. The mode of project management will depend on the ways people would work. More and more people are working as freelancers and are working on smaller stints for a number of companies. The platforms went through revolutionized modes of communication between the consumers and the brands.

The workplaces would become more diverse:

The largest increasing demographic in the various workplaces is the range of age groups of 55 to 64. The population age is increasing as more and more people would continue to live up to 100 years of age in the upcoming decades. This brings forward various implications for various aspects like financial products, social care, mobility, and housing. In many corporate places, one must think about how the organizations are evolving and changing in order to have an intergenerational mix.

Project management based on machine learning is on its way:

The professional in the project management will have to utilize the various available technologies. The project management team or the project managers should review the tasks and must figure out what can be automated. By utilizing such technologies will become the norm in almost all areas of the business. So, the various professionals in the field of project management embrace it, assure it and also deploy this in an accurate manner.

It is expected that the technology will change in four ways:

• Generation
• Substitution
• Transference
• Augmentation

Generation is the process by which technology replaces human work directly. Generation is the process where it builds new works and roles. Augmentation is the process where technology supports mankind in terms of work. And, transference is the process where the workers are generally moved from one to another directly.

It has been seen that there is a point where project management based on machine learning can be seen. Basically, in this process, some information regarding the past projects is put in and then it would analyze what had gone wrong and what had gone right. So, the fact here is that it is fed in the current project and it will be able to make some recommendations for how to proceed further for maximizing the chances for success of the project.

The project managers will become the people managers:

For the future project manager, the most important and key skills would be problem-solving, creativity, emotional intelligence, cognitive flexibility, and effective collaboration. Apart from these, data analysis skills are also of great importance. As project-based working has become the now, thus the skills of general project management will be extremely valuable. Moreover, there are a lot of leaders out there, who have actually started to realize the fact that the work is becoming more and more “project-based”. Thus, it is required to learn from the project profession.

From several studies and researches, it has been expected that there might be some talent gap in the field of project management due to the rising need of project managers. Though these talent gaps are going to pose some challenges in the path of the organizations out there across the world, the global shortage of the project management skills and talent will bring on some exceptional opportunities for the qualified professionals out there in and start and carry forward their careers in the industry of project management.

So, now this is high time that the professionals of the project management fields embrace the opportunities and various advantages that the talent gap would afford them. So, without any further delay, the organization must realize what actually the implications of the talent gaps are.

The demand is significantly high for the practitioners out there who have some required mix of necessary competencies. In order to become successful in this fast-paced world of today, the organizations essentially require a project, managers of program and portfolio having the required leadership and technical skills, and also the capabilities of strategic business management.
