Session
Groundhog Day in the life of a Project Manager
Every Project can be a Blockbuster Movie.
The stage is set for:
"Groundhog Day in the Life of a Project Manager"
And.....Action:
Ever feel like you're reliving the same project challenges over and over again?
After reliving the same day/project over and over again, what is stopping you from changing the outcome?
Are you able to recognize the repetition loops?
Then what is stopping you from utilising that absorbed knowledge and available tools to grow, improve, and make each day/project a better one?
In this engaging session, I will draw parallels between the iconic film and the realities of project management, offering insights into how to break the cycle of repetition, where AI can and can't help, and evolve your leadership approach to avoid déjà vu in your projects.
Key Takeaways
1. Recurring challenges are common in project management — recognizing them is the first step toward improvement.
2. Patterns like scope creep, misalignment, and poor requirements often repeat due to organizational habits and a lack of reflection.
3. Emotional awareness helps project managers identify when they’re stuck in a cycle — frustration and burnout are signals, not weaknesses.
4. Breaking the cycle requires intentional change: change management, discipline, hard decisions, adaptive planning, and relentless stakeholder engagement.
5. Utilizing evolving tools like AI, Agile retrospectives, and lessons learned, drive decision-making and empower PMs to evolve and lead more effectively.
6. Project managers must be learners and leaders, not just executors — growth comes from reflection and increased emotional intelligence, not from repetition.
What kind of movie will your project be?
Comedy, Thriller, Horror, Drama... sometimes it depends solely on you!
Be the lead role in the project you want to lead!
