March Luncheon: From ChatGPT to Program Agents: What’s Next for Project, Program & Portfolio Leaders
Ways of Working
Generative AI is evolving daily—from ChatGPT as a conversational assistant to personal AI agents and now program-level agents capable of coordinating work, analyzing risk, and supporting decision-making across projects and portfolios. As today moltbot is the hottest topic.
As the technology accelerates, many Project, Program, and Portfolio Management (PPPM) professionals are left asking a critical question: Where do we fit in this new landscape?
This session explores how AI is shifting from task-based support to agent-driven systems—and what that shift means for the future of project leadership. Moving beyond tools and hype, the conversation reframes AI as a strategic capability that reshapes how work is planned, governed, and led across complex environments.
Attendees will examine the good, the bad, and the ugly of AI agents in project delivery:
• the real productivity and insight gains,
• the risks of over-automation, blind trust, and governance gaps, and
• the uncomfortable truths about role disruption and accountability.
Participants will gain a practical understanding of the progression from ChatGPT to personal and program agents, identify which aspects of project work can be responsibly augmented by AI, and clarify where human judgment, ethics, and leadership remain irreplaceable. The session offers a grounded, human-centered perspective to help PPPM professionals stay relevant, credible, and confident as AI agents become part of everyday delivery environments.
