Project management professionals need to address both the challenges and opportunities teams currently face and what the future of remote working will bring. Additionally, a “work from anywhere” policy is quickly becoming a necessity for recruiting, engaging, and retaining talent.

In consideration of developing countries, we are waiting for the next billion users to be connected to the internet. This is important to understand because the constant change in; ways of working (remote, hybrid); type of workers (contract, gig, fluid); partnerships (vendors, third-party); competition; markets; customer needs. As time progresses, the complexity of our world will be ever-increasing. How do we prepare for this? By upgrading our Leadership Operating System Security is a part of “Built-In Quality”. It is imperative companies deliver rapid value to their customers, but safety should never be dropped in place of speed. There is a way for speed, quality, and safety to live harmoniously together. This requires a mindset and cultural shift, and this shift is the responsibility of the leadership team How do you recognize when leadership is happening? Is it by speech? Is it by action? People can only recognize that leadership is in fact happening when they share common knowledge principles. What do I mean by this? When you are asked to describe beauty, what do you say? Many will agree that waterfalls, mountains, and stars are beautiful. Why? Because the same knowledge principle is shared that says, “that is beauty”. How does this relate to leadership? We must share common knowledge principles to recognize that leadership is in fact happening. We must point to it and give it a name. In conclusion, we are all headed into the uncharted, the uncertain, and the unknown. While the task in front of us is daunting, just remember, we are one idea away from changing the world. |
