About this Presentation

An Age of Chaos
50% of current jobs will be automated out of existence
1 in 7 of the global population are on the move
Traditional companies struggling. More complexity for less.
25 billion internet connected devices by 2020 (Gartner)
On-demand economic forces – altering the nature of work
Instability – Euro deflation risk, nuclear weapons proliferation,….

Organisations – mankind's journey
Tribal Age
Agrarian Age
Scientific/Industrial Age
Information Age
Violent - crude
Organised - stable
Innovation - markets
Globalisation - internet

$3 trillion lost annually due to project underperformance 1

“Many people sense that the current way we run organisations
has been stretched to its limits. We are increasingly disillusioned
with organisational life” F. Laloux
PM – urgency and opportunity
1 Prof Rodney Turner et al, Perspectives on Projects (Routledge, 2010)

Large proportion of contractor staff
Inexperienced leadership (esp at board level)
C-level/staff disengagement
Project management not strategically developed
Inadequate systems for PM improvement and learning
Organisations designed for BAU, not projects
Methods obesity – not meeting the need for agility and creativity
Preoccupation with individual rather team capability
Current State of Projects-Organisations

Neuroscience – for leadership
The brain’s primary function is
to keep us safe
People’s brains have developed
the need to be in good
relationships
The brain operates efficiently by
making patterns/maps
We are much less rational than
we think

The Teal Organisations – living entity

No job titles – fluid roles – no competition
Radically simplified PM – no project managers
