The early buzz around the conference is that researchers Janice Thomas, Ph.D., and Mark Mullaly, PMP, have some pretty significant results to present from PMI's multimillion-dollar study on Researching the Value of Project Management.
Til now, researchers have been unable to collect and analyze the relevant data to demonstrate the value of project management with sufficient scope and statistical validity. There have been other survey-based studies on the subject. But this is hardcore evidence--apparently a gigabyte of data has been analyzed--and that makes it hard for anyone to ignore. The study will look at more than 60 cases (I've heard closer to 70) from small and large companies across a variety of industries and around the world.
Stay tuned ...
