PMI Austin Chapter Meeting (In-Person) - Hybrid Project Management with AI
Today’s projects demand more than a single methodology. They require flexibility, clarity, and the confidence to adapt. Hybrid project management combines the structure of predictive approaches with the responsiveness of Agile. When applied thoughtfully, it helps Project Professionals align delivery with complexity, stakeholder needs, and organizational priorities. Now, artificial intelligence is accelerating that impact.
In this session, you’ll explore how AI-powered tools can strengthen hybrid delivery - from automating user story development to forecasting risk, optimizing resources, and enabling real-time insights. You’ll walk away with practical strategies to integrate AI into both predictive and Agile phases of your project lifecycle.
What you’ll gain
- Clarity on when and how to apply a hybrid approach
- Practical ways to integrate AI into everyday project work
- Greater confidence in improving outcomes through smarter decision-making
