Brian Sommer and I have recorded 12 episodes in this series - see index here
For the next few episodes, I will be joined by guest analysts and industry observers. Last couple of weeks Rob Kugel of Ventana and Josh Greenbaum of EA Consulting have joined us.
This week, it is Bonnie Tinder, founder of Raven Intel which monitors project management trends and SI quality metrics.
We discuss how project management has undergone a major transformation during the pandemic. The accelerated clinical trials of the COVID-19 vaccines have certainly raised the bar. In IT projects, especially HR projects she tracks, the key word as she says is "shift". Some have been postponed, some shortened, a new category of projects has been fast tracked,
We also discuss how SIs have been doing during the pandemic. Many smaller and midsized SIs are being squeezed out by the larger SIs as bigger projects disappear.
She provides a nice Raven's - bird's eye - view of the state of project and program management.
