Workshop Description
In light of the increasing acceleration in the adoption of artificial intelligence technologies, the role of Project Management Offices (PMO) is no longer limited to tracking and reporting; it has become a central element in supporting executive decision-making and enhancing organizational efficiency.
This workshop aims to review the strategic transformation of the PMO role from a traditional operational model to an intelligent model based on predictive analytics, automation, and artificial intelligence agents. It also discusses the practical, organizational, and technical frameworks necessary to build an AI-Enabled PMO capable of managing projects and project portfolios in complex, multi-party environments.
