S10 Ep 06: How to deliver brilliantly for growth with Prof Adam Boddison OBE

How can organisations deliver for growth even amidst unending changes and tight deadlines? In this episode, I have a fascinating conversation with Professor Adam Boddison OBE, CEO of the Association for Project Management, who sheds light on the intersection of project management and leadership under pressure.

We explore how organisations can empower their teams to deliver more effectively by:

⭐️ Emphasising the importance of strategic planning and recognising that "projects don't go wrong, they start wrong."

⭐️ Understanding to blend project, product, and change management for more successful execution.

⭐️ Adapting to continuous project delivery rather than traditional BAU models.

Adam also explains why focusing on the project benefits - both intended and unintended - is crucial for societal impact, with examples such as the iconic Sydney Opera House and the Channel Tunnel.

Discover practical strategies to enhance your project success rates and how the Association for Project Management supports individuals and organisations with its competence framework and corporate partnerships.
