Statement of Motivation for a DBA
I have been working in projects/programmes for over 20 years and have noticed the slow adoption rate of best practices and willingness to change that leads to a decline or no improvement in productivity of the sector compared to other industries.
As a company owner dedicated to improving the delivery of our projects and programmes for clients want to establish a guideline on how we can practically apply AI and data driven decision making to guarantee to tackle those issues impacting the industry. As PMO we need to support and ensure that these changes are applied to ensure better success rates, especially when considering public funds in megaprojects.
