Topic: Design Projects for Knowledge Sharing and Learning

PMI Talent Triangle: Power Skill (1 PDU)

Abstract: Designing projects in ways that facilitate knowledge sharing, efficient collaboration, and learning can be a challenge. In our distributed / hybrid work world, being intentional about our ways of working, communicating, and sharing knowledge is even more important. You will walk away from this session with some tangible ways that you can design ways of working that support not only your project goals but also overall organizational learning and knowledge sharing. We will share tips for how to address common knowledge-sharing challenges experienced by project managers. 
This aligns with the theme because the next generation of project managers need to put on their ways of working designer hats in order to more intentionally support knowledge sharing and collaboration. The "future of work" is actually the "now of work".

Learning Objectives:

  • Attendees will come away with practical tips and methods for designing projects in ways that promote knowledge sharing and learning.
  • Attendees will learn about common knowledge sharing, collaboration, and learning challenges and some ways that they can start to address them on their projects.
  • Attendees will understand that they are designers who can design their projects to support larger organization-wide knowledge sharing and learning goals that ultimately impact the overall employee experience.
