E50 The Science of Project Management and Learning Agility for Leadership Effectiveness

Our capacity and openness to new ideas and concepts help to expand our growth within the project management field. In this episode, we explore new thinking for science within project management and also how to benefit from learning agility. Listen to hear Josh Ramirez President of the Institute for Neuro & Behavioral Project Management and Veronica Schmidt Harvey Principal with Schmidt Harvey Consulting.

Josh gets us thinking about the science of project management and how the brain functions the help us improve as our ability to successfully deliver projects. For example, how we plan a project vs predicting how a project will play out. Predictions allow us to bring in additional sciences which will allow us to be more accurate.

Veronica focuses on leadership and techniques leaders should use to be more successful. Learning agility is not tied specifically to Agile, rather it is about applying learnings at the pace of change. She shares that while IQ and EQ are critical to effectiveness, learning agility is even more important and a better predictor of effectiveness as a leader.

In these times of self-quarantine and working from home, we'll continue to bring you insightful conversations with project management and leadership thought leaders. We have a great lineup of international guests upcoming to cover a broad range of topics.
