Jo Lucas advocates for a more adaptive and organic approach to project management. Drawing a metaphor about creating pathways, she emphasizes the importance of recognizing the intricate, interdependent relationships that exist not just among humans but also between humans and the non-human world. Rather than enforcing strict structures, Lucas suggests allowing individuals the freedom to navigate their roles while providing a supportive framework around them. She firmly believes in tailoring processes to people, rather than forcing people to adapt to rigid processes. This perspective represents a significant paradigm shift in conceptualizing project management.
