The pursuit of knowledge has always permeated my journey. This subject still inspires me, mainly due to the profound transformations we are experiencing and the need to rethink how to leverage knowledge to propel project success. Building on my academic research at the intersection of knowledge management and project management, it is both timely and essential to reflect on the current challenges and possibilities that arise when these two disciplines converge.

PMI Zone No 50E International Edition, October 2025

Industry 4.0, often described as the fourth industrial revolution, is transforming how companies design, manage, and optimize production. Powered by digital technologies, it integrates machines, data, and people into intelligent networks that connect suppliers, producers, and customers. This shift poses new challenges, but also opens opportunities to create more sustainable, flexible, and efficient industrial systems.

In today's fast-paced business environment, project managers face an increasingly complex challenge: how to coordinate multiple moving parts, manage diverse team members, and deliver results on time while maintaining quality standards. The answer lies not in adding more tools or processes, but in fundamentally rethinking how we approach task management through intuitive, streamlined solutions that work with human behavior rather than against it.

Have you ever thought about how Agile leadership would look if the Agile Manifesto were written today when teams are spread across continents, connected only by screens, and collaborating across time zones? But as project teams have become global, cross-functional, and remote-first, the ways we enable delivery have had to evolve.

One Size Does Not Fit All: The Tailoring Imperative

Imagine every team member wearing the same size suit to a project kick-off meeting, absurd right? Yet, many organisations impose uniform project management methodologies across all projects, regardless of size, complexity, or risk profile. Tailoring challenges this mindset. It advocates for customising methodologies, tools, processes, and life cycles to the uniqueness of each project.

In Mexico, we have a traditional board game called “Lotería”, made up of 16 playing boards featuring lottery images distributed in a 4 x 4 pattern. Each image represents distinctive symbols of Mexican culture, including fruits like the pear, animals like the heron, musical instruments like the harp, and iconic characters such as the drunkard, the brave man, the mermaid, the lady, the dandy (el catrín), among others.

Navigating Complexity: What Project Managers Can Learn from Baroque Governance & Transversal Citizenship

PMI Zone No 50E International Edition, October 2025

In a world where projects increasingly cross sectoral, institutional, and jurisdictional boundaries, effective management becomes an art of navigating complexity. Unfortunately, modern project environments can be compared to baroque governance—full of winding corridors, layered procedures, and ceremonial approvals. To succeed in fields like public administration, healthcare, or nonprofit work, project managers must go beyond technical tools like Agile or Lean. They must also develop transversal citizenship—the ability to bridge cultures, disciplines, and competing priorities. So how change-makers can become value architects in a world shaped by “wicked problems” and “systemic uncertainty”?

The Hidden Engine of Project Success: A Robust Benefit Management Plan

PMI Zone No 50E International Edition, October 2025

Projects are initiated to create value–financial returns, operational efficiency, strategic differentiation. Yet many fall short of delivering these intended outcomes. Why? A key missing link is often the Benefits Management Plan (BMP) – the bridge between strategy and results. A BMP ensures that a project is not just executed on time and within budget, but that it delivers measurable value. In today’s project economy, where outcomes trump outputs, a well-crafted BMP is no longer optional – it’s essential.

50 odcieni zarządzania projektami, czyli wszystkie twarze PM-a, vol. I

Strefa PMI nr 50, wrzesień 2025

Tak jak Christian Grey w popularnym (chyba) filmie miał swoje odcienie szarości, tak i Project Manager nie zawsze porusza się tylko w czerwono-zielono-żółtym środowisku. Nierzadko musi okazać się człowiekiem o wielu twarzach. Raz musi być twardy jak legionista, innym razem cierpliwy jak dyrygent. Potem skrojony na miarę niczym garnitur od najlepszego krawca, a następnie jako sprinter uciekać przed kolejnym pilnym mailem lub po prostu złapać się z nim za bary jak zawodowy rugbysta.
