My new KPI these days has nothing to do with a steering committee. It's dry underwear. We're at about 60% and climbing.

AI can run your project management software. It cannot run a room. That's the distinction most change management conversations are missing right now.

When a UCF commencement speaker praised AI to graduating artists, they booed her off the stage. She never saw it coming — and that failure to read the room is precisely what AI cannot do. As AI absorbs the transactional PMO work, the skills that actually determine project success become impossible to ignore: trust, judgment, and emotional intelligence. The boos weren't technophobia — they were a generation asking a legitimate question most organizations aren't equipped to ans

The PMO has an identity crisis — and that's actually a good thing. 🔄 For years, the enterprise Project Management Office operated like a tollbooth: projects checked in, got their governance stamps, and moved along. Orderly. Consistent. And increasingly, in the way. That model is changing fast. The modern PMO isn't a gatekeeper — it's an enabler. And the leaders running it aren't just methodology experts. They're strategists, change agents, and C-suite business partners.

A reluctant husband, one fearless 8-year-old, and an almost-3-year-old in a stroller walk into a 6-mile race. Nobody told the husband. Nobody told the kids. Everybody showed up anyway.
