The Future of Project Management: From Agile to Project-Driven Organizations

For more than two decades, agile has helped organizations become faster and more adaptive. But in a world transformed by Artificial Intelligence, sustainability imperatives, and continuous disruption, agility alone is no longer enough. The next evolution is emerging: Project-Driven Organizations (PDOs) — enterprises that run on projects as their primary operating model.

In this keynote, Antonio Nieto-Rodriguez, global thought leader and author of the forthcoming Harvard Business Review book Powered by Projects, explores how leading companies are moving beyond matrix and agile structures to embrace a fully project-based way of working. PDOs integrate AI and digital tools to enhance decision-making, empower autonomous teams, and link every initiative to strategic purpose and measurable impact.

Attendees will gain a clear vision of how project management is evolving into a strategic discipline that unites technology, people, and purpose — and how they can lead the transformation toward truly project-powered, future-ready organizations.
