AIPM members are invited to help us celebrate International Project Management Day (in late November) at our complimentary webinar where we will discuss the state of the project management profession in Australia in 2022.
We will be summarising the key findings from our fifth survey with KPMG Australia and, will dissect these results with a dynamic panel of project leaders in Australia and invite AIPM members to ask questions on the future of the profession.
Our aim is to help identify and elevate issues facing project management professionals, while highlighting trends and factors around the quality of project delivery. Beyond our longitudinal trends, we will focus on salary and topical issues including economic shortages, complexity in a range of contemporary projects, and Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG). Join us to discover how the project professional is looking now and the direction it is moving in the future.
Event takeaways
- Gain insights into the project profession in Australia
- How economic constraints (including staff and material shortages) have impacted project delivery
- How complex procurement and programs are becoming the norm
- How ESG is emerging as a factor affecting project management
