APM event hosted by the Midlands Network on 11 April 2024.
Speaker: Carole Osterweil
Data is power. AI changes everything.
If the claims about both are true, how can we ensure we use data and AI well? And what does it mean for the very things which make us human - our feelings?
In this workshop Carole will draw on material from her ground-breaking book, Neuroscience for Project Success: why people behave as they do to answer both questions.
“We like to think our decision making is completely rational. However, once there's an element of uncertainty, conscious assessments are only part of the story. Two other inputs, both subconscious and driven by our innate need to survive, have a big impact.
One, automatic reactions driven by cognitive biases, gets plenty of airtime.
The other input, our raw visceral emotions might be scary to talk about and less understood - but that’s not a reason to pretend they don’t exist!”
This interactive workshop will draw on material from Carole’s book, Neuroscience for Project Success: why people behave as they do, published by APM in 2022.
You’ll come away with:
a clear understanding of how the human brain works.
a framework that:
explains ‘why people behave as they do’.
makes it easier to talk about feelings in a matter-of-fact way (so that they become part of your conscious data set)
new insights into yourself and your projects in a world that’s often characterised by stress and disorder.
Act on these insights and you’ll see the impact - on your teams and stakeholders, your decisions about how to use data and AI, and ultimately your project outcomes.
AI in the project profession: examples of current use and roadmaps to adoption webinar

Content description:
Disruptive technology and accelerating change is the now the norm within business. Advancements that feel relatively recent are already becoming embedded into business-as-usual activity. AI is one such advancement; it is already being used and having real-world impacts across the project profession.
To help P3M professionals understand the implications of this change, APM invited representatives from organisations that have introduced or are preparing to introduce AI into their project workstreams, to explain their approach and share their insight with fellow professionals.
This webinar on explored how AI is currently being used in project and programme management, and how organisations are gearing up for its adoption.
Katharine works for WRAP which is a climate action NGO working in more than 40 countries around the globe to tackle the causes of the climate crisis and give the planet a sustainable future. In this session, you will learn about WRAP’s plastics programme and how sustainability has been incorporated as a core value in delivery of the programme, with the aim of inspiring the audience to take action in their own work.
Kai-Fu Lee predicted that AI would change the world more than anything in the history of humanity – even electricity. It would disrupt how we live and work, how we operate our businesses, the core products and services on offer and the way in which we build technology.
However, in 2024 the impact of AI can no longer be discussed in future tense. With Microsoft copilot now publicly available, the change is already upon us. There is no consultation period or ‘unsubscribe’ button.
Project management professionals are likely to be asked to manage AI projects - and we are expected to skilfully use AI in our daily work lives. While overwhelming, this is not the first time we’ve had to adapt.
Sarah helps her audience sharpen their cutting-edge skills by answering:
What do I need to know about AI right now?
If I’m asked to work on an AI project, what techniques do I need to be successful?
Where do I start my own learning journey to upskill and prepare?
Sarah’s expertise in advanced agile and experience in highly regulated Finance environments give her a unique perspective into balancing governance with technical innovation. She uses her own experience building an AI solution in 2023 to share practical, widely applicable concepts in an “AI for project managers” 101 style session.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Kun Wang and Ian Stewart - Can Artificial Intelligence learn to be a project professional?
1. Can Artificial Intelligence learn
to be a project professional?
–An exploration based on your conception of ‘profession ’
Dr Kun Wang kun.wang@manchester.ac.uk
Dr Ian Stewart i.c.stewart@manchester.ac.uk
2. Outline
• AI and human occupations
• Overview of the research area
• What do we mean by ‘profession’?
• What do we mean by AI and professional status of project
practitioners?
3. Human occupations and new technologies
PwC reported that “Gartner forecasts
that 80% of project management
roles will be eliminated by 2030 as AI
takes on traditional project
management functions such as data
collection, tracking and reporting.”
4. AI
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is defined as machines or computer systems
that can imitate intelligent human behaviours (Kok et al., 2009)
Liu et al. (2019)
5. Why profession?
• Great status and power in society
• Control over of the development of the required knowledge by
respective professional bodies
• Gives an individual a certain degree of protection in the labour
market
• Highly-skilled expert practitioners
With the UK Association for Project Management being granted a Royal
Charter, the peak of recognition for a professional group in UK society,
project management can be regarded as a successful and
representative ‘corporate profession’ (Sabini and Muzio, 2017).
7. Why Folk Concepts ?
• Solo-practice in project management
• AI? Is AI also used in airbags?

Mastering project
management
knowledge and the
hard skills –
Codified
Knowledge
Hard skills of PM (risk, time or cost management) can be replaced by
AI
AI will make a static BoK pointless, it will have all the answers which
will evolve for specific industries
AI will make PM certification or chartership less important as
individuals merely have to know how to operate the AI
An AI will be able to contribute to the development of the professional
discourse/body of knowledge
AI will commoditise the expertise of project management, allowing
other professions to take it over and use it
AI will prevent teams from developing their own terminologies for
unique practices, enforcing a common standard
Use of soft skills -
Uncodified/uncodifi
able knowledge
AI will prevent accrual of experience sufficient for chartership or
qualification
An AI will be able to motivate and encourage other human beings in a
project team
Unified practice created by AI will reduce space for innovative project
management
An AI will be able to understand true meaning despite what is said.
Principles and
values
AI can take responsibility for misconduct and dishonesty
AI can provide a project managers' manner to stakeholders
AI will accept blame or responsibility for project failure
Sense of community and
awareness of the body of
peers
AI can earn respect as a 'peer'
AI will lead to reduced opportunities for recognition of a
PM by the community or other project managers
AI will impact on the network for learning, reducing
availability of experienced project managers
AI will reduce an individual’s sense of belonging to the
profession, there will be fewer practitioners in the network
AI will ‘give back’ to the professional community
Career boost AI will reduce employers’ training and investment in project
managers professional development
AI taking technical roles will remove stages of the project
management career path – preventing junior learning
AI will create new barriers to practice through complexity
in use and management, creating new need for learning and
new resources for status improvement of project managers
AI will affect (reduce) the fees chargeable for human
project managers from clients
Clients want to know that project managers understand their
business, an AI can also convince a client in this way
Social Status An AI will be recognised by the public as a professional
AI will be able to have sign-off power over designs,
documentation or contracts
AI will reduce the bargaining power of professional project
managers in front of employers and clients
AI will influence children and young people towards project
management as a first career
AI will make project management a more future-facing
profession.
Emotional status AI will reduce sense of achievement in obtaining
qualifications or obtaining successful project outcomes
Mastery of AI makes an individual project manager look
good
