    One of the best quotes from Peter Drucker is ‘Culture eats strategy for breakfast.’ You can have the best strategy, you can have the best process that you're trying to design, but if you don’t attend to the culture, you’re not going to get very far at all.

    Artificial Intelligence is going to play a role in analytics and should be incorporated in PMOs. Let the machines do the work around data and project managers should focus more on the human part.
