Guest – Bismark Owusu Afriyie 
This episode features a conversation with Bismark Owusu Afriyie where we unpack the shifting landscape of artificial intelligence in project management.
Based on Bismark’s expertise in this area, we discuss the most common fear that PM’s have today – Will automation replace human coordinators? Drawing from his journey from Ghana to testing project platforms in the United States, Bismark breaks down how AI actually functions in real-world project environments. Instead of a threat, the discussion highlights AI as a powerful collaborative tool that lifts administrative burdens so project leaders can focus on what matters most.
Here are the key takeaways from the discussion:
- The Project Manager’s Advantage: How to leverage AI to automate scheduling, resource allocation, and risk tracking, freeing up time for strategic decision-making and human connection.
- The Reality Behind the Myth: Why the widespread fear of AI replacing human planning and execution misses the mark on how the technology operates in real project settings.
- Hands-on Implementation: Insights from evaluating and deploying project management platforms, moving past theoretical debates to practical everyday use.
