Project Management • 2m 59s
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.
