Promoting knowledge sharing between delegates from different countries and backgrounds is one of the objectives of next week`s Growth and Collaboration for a Project Management Profession conference, being held in Midrand, Gauteng.
Project Management South Africa (PMSA), together with the Project Management Institute, is hosting the conference, and has confirmed the line up of international speakers. Issues such as the state of project management, technology for project management, value of research in project management and business and knowledge management, are on the agenda, PMSA says.
Project management has been identified as one of several workable solutions to making better use of existing technology and organisational resources, by getting work to flow horizontally, as well as vertically within the company, says Clinton Veld, CEO of software development company X-pert Group.
Speakers include Iain Fraser, MD of Project Plus, a New Zealand-based consulting organisation focusing on delivery of project management services; Hiroshi Tanaka, national president of the Project Management Association of Japan; and Ginger Levin, who holds a doctorate in public administration and information systems technology and is a professor at the University of Wisconsin.
