In this episode, Ricardo announces the release of the second global research on AI in project management, co-authored with Antonio Nieto-Rodriguez. Compared to their first study two years ago, AI has moved from experimentation to mainstream adoption. The 2025 report, based on insights from 870 professionals in 97 countries, shows that AI familiarity has doubled, and over two-thirds now use AI tools daily. Nearly half of organizations report cost reductions, and 25% achieved over $250,000 ROI. The greatest benefits appear in scaling, risk management, and forecasting. Barriers have shifted from technical to cultural and ethical. By 2028, 42% of organizations expect AI copilots to manage most projects. AI won’t replace humans but enhance leadership and decision-making. Download the free report at pmairevolution.com.

The Future Has Arrived: The Second Global Research on AI in Project Management

Neste episódio, Ricardo anuncia o lançamento da segunda pesquisa global sobre IA em gerenciamento de projetos, em coautoria com Antonio Nieto-Rodriguez. Em comparação com o primeiro estudo, realizado há dois anos, a IA passou da experimentação para a adoção generalizada. O relatório de 2025, baseado em insights de 870 profissionais em 97 países, mostra que a familiaridade com IA dobrou e mais de dois terços agora usam ferramentas de IA diariamente. Quase metade das organizações relatam reduções de custos e 25% alcançaram um ROI superior a US$ 250.000. Os maiores benefícios aparecem em escala, gerenciamento de riscos e previsão. As barreiras deixaram de ser técnicas e passaram a ser culturais e éticas. Até 2028, 42% das organizações esperam que copilotos de IA gerenciem a maioria dos projetos. A IA não substituirá os humanos, mas aprimorará a liderança e a tomada de decisões. Baixe o relatório gratuito em pmairevolution.com.

O Futuro Chegou: A Segunda Pesquisa Global sobre IA em Projetos

Hello

Thanks for visiting my profile. 

I am an experienced leader in global operations, project management, business transformation, and crisis management. My main focus is implementing innovative global initiatives, capital projects, and product development. I have directed dozens of projects across industries and continents, managing more than $20 billion in global initiatives over the past 25 years.

I am a seasoned board member who has participated in the Brazilian Institute of Corporate Governance (IBGC) board member program. I was the first Latin American to become chairman of the board of the Project Management Institute globally, where I served for four years. I am also a member of the advisory board of Yera, an Estonian startup dedicated to improving employee performance and engagement through technology and artificial intelligence.

I share my expertise with millions of professionals around the globe through my "5 Minutes Podcast," which I have hosted since 2007 and has reached 12 million views. I've written 16 books on project management, risk and crisis management, and transformation, which have been translated into six languages and sold over half a million copies.

I am a seasoned speaker and have delivered over 250 keynote addresses in 40 countries. My influence on the sector was affirmed when I became the first Latin American to be elected Chairman of the Project Management Institute.

My work as a venture capitalist and entrepreneur in artificial intelligence, blockchain, big data, chatbots, and machine learning resulted in tools and products that have revolutionized how users bring agility and agile management into project management software.

More than two decades ago, I founded Macrosolutions, a global consulting firm with international operations in energy, infrastructure, IT, oil, and finance.

Between 2016 and 2020, I envisioned and led the Brightline Initiative, a Project Management Institute think tank in partnership with leading organizations dedicated to helping executives bridge the expensive, unproductive gap between strategy design and delivery.

Before Brightline, I was Director of the United Nations Office for Project Services (UNOPS) Infrastructure and Project Management Group, leading over 1,000 projects and $1.2 billion in humanitarian and development projects. I was also responsible for the first ESG Report in the UN System, published in 2015.

I have a Ph.D. in Civil Engineering, an undergraduate degree in Chemical Engineering, and a master's degree in Industrial Engineering.
