Your host, Sri Chellappa, talks with the CEO of the Association for Project Management, Adam Boddison. Adam discussed how project management extends beyond its technical roots to play a crucial role in strategic execution. Adam emphasized that project management should not be viewed as a niche specialty but rather as a set of tools and techniques that can significantly enhance a leader's ability to implement strategy effectively. He pointed out that the misconception of project management as overly technical often prevents leaders from fully appreciating its value in driving major change.
Adam delved into the reasons why many strategic initiatives fall short of their intended impact. Adam highlighted a shift in leadership roles, with leaders increasingly tasked with delivering substantial change. This shift necessitates a strong command of project management skills to ensure successful strategy execution. He discussed the concept of "projectification" in leadership, noting that the focus on leadership development programs has sometimes overshadowed the critical importance of execution and management skills.
