Mastering the Synergy of Technology and Human Expertise

Understanding AI technology is just the beginning. Leaders must understand how to employ power skills to elevate how humans interact—with one another and with AI. Critical thinking, leadership, conflict management, stakeholder engagement and other power skills are essential in all projects. 

AI-Powered Leadership aims to empower leaders to navigate the complexities of the AI-driven world by developing human competencies and integrating them with AI capabilities, fostering a balanced, innovative, and ethically sound leadership approach that drives sustainable success. It aims to provide a comprehensive framework for leaders to understand and apply the “Both/And” approach in leadership, where leaders don’t have to choose between traditional methods and AI-driven innovation but can leverage the strengths of both. The approach of the book is a practical, integrative framework that combines theory with actionable strategies to help leaders navigate the complex dynamics of AI in their organizations.

“AI is already here and is making career-altering changes in the way project managers lead their projects. Ignoring it won’t make it go away. Simply using it is also not enough. Get and stay ahead of the curve by learning how to best collaborate with AI systems. This book gives you a unique edge—it details how you can combine your power skills and powerful knowledge about how AI really works (and doesn’t, sometimes) to make the best possible project decisions, improve project success—and keep your career moving forward.”

Foreword by industry legend Harold Kerzner! This book describes a completely unique step-by-step, workflow-guiding approach to project management which simplifies activities by enforcing execution of all required processes on time, and redirecting to an alternative path in the event of project issues. Since compliance with all project management processes is enforced by the workflow, product quality is significantly improved and life cycle errors are almost eliminated. Project Workflow Management: A Business Process Approach is the first and only book in the marketplace which enables readers with no prior project management experience to manage the entire life cycle of any small to mid-sized project. It also equips mid- and senior-level project managers with directions and a detailed map to the effective management of complex projects and programs.

Rapidly evolving technologies, global business interdependencies, and changes to project management (PM) processes and tools demand that new PM competencies be continuously developed and adequately applied to achieve successful results. Despite the many advances in the PM discipline, significant competency gaps exist within even the most successful companies. This book provides the proven strategic approaches needed to grow and evolve your project managers' competency over time, in step with the needs of your business, and supplies practical examples of competency models and how to deploy them.
