Will AI Enable Sustainable Project Value? Interview with Loredana Abramo

Interview Project Management Expert – Loredana Abramo – about AI in Project Management

The discussion explores AI’s transformative role in project management, emphasizing its use for risk analysis, decision-making, and enhancing “power skills” like empathy. Key themes include AI as a collaborative partner, ethical guardrails, data quality, and organizational readiness. Loredana advocates for balanced adoption—leveraging AI’s strengths while maintaining human oversight and critical thinking.

• AI identifies hidden project risks and process inefficiencies
• Acts as a thought partner for complex decisions (e.g., team conflicts)
• Requires clean data and organizational guardrails to avoid misuse
• Enhances (but doesn’t replace) human creativity and leadership
• Successful adoption demands training, control loops, and ethical review processes
• Case studies show controlled AI use outperforms unrestricted dependency
• Frees up time for strategic thinking by automating repetitive tasks
