The Role of AI in the Future of Project Management (Presentation)

In the workplace, problem-solving skills are significant because they enable employees to solve challenges and collaborate more effectively. Employers seek someone who can think creatively to reach answers that will help the team to move forward. How can you utilize AI to help you solve challenges?

Consider yourself as an IT project manager in your organization who needs to present to the team how AI can be used to drive future PM projects. Using MS PowerPoint or Prezi design a presentation on how the team could use AI to solve problems. You can incorporate in the presentation a problem that you are presently facing at work, your opinion, and examples that will help you support your recommendation Your presentation should include the following:

Use the 5W1H Method (what, who, when, where, why, and how) to analyze the problem and recommend solutions.
Consider the following uses Of AI In Project Management
Automation
Predictive Analytics
Resource Allocation
Project Monitoring
Consider the following Benefits Of AI In Project Management
Efficiency
Better Decision Making
Cost Reduction
What to Consider
Data Privacy
Integration
Ethics and Biases
