Project management congress 2019
Delft University of Technology and the Project Management Institute (PMI) Netherlands Chapter are delighted to invite you to participate in the international Project Management Congress “ADAPT or DIE” on Thursday 11 April and Friday 12 April 2019.
Research meets Practice: towards Project Management 3.0.
Project management is now a fully-grown scientific field and has thriving professional organisations. The current increase in investments leads to a growing number of projects with the historical question remaining constant: how do we increase the success rate of projects?
From both sides there has been critique: science has been accused of not providing answers that are of practical use. Practice has been accused of not taking an interest of the lessons provided by science. Due time to get them together!
Building bridges instead of enlarging the gap. What practical use can research offer? How can we turn project management expertise into theoretic concepts. How do new concepts interact with more traditional methods? What is the impact of the growing complexity, digitalization, virtual teams, growing demands for sustainability and other challenges on the project management profession?
Starting from a ‘soft’ and a ‘hard’ perspective on Project Management three main focus points have been chosen for the congress program: theory, practice and, most important, theory AND practice. Therefore the congress will not only be of utmost interest to the world of science but also to the practitioners across all industries and organisations.
The TU Delft made a cross connection that has not been made before. Project Management binds the 6 organizing faculties of the TU Delft together. The connection with PMI Netherlands chapter ensures that the whole field of Project Management is covered across all kinds of organizations and projects.
An intriguing challenge that will most certainly result in two inspiring days! As a consequence of these three focal points various contributions can be made: Journal papers, conference papers or posters, workshops, discussion themes.

International keynote speakers from the field of science and practice will give in an interactive way their vision regarding the future of project management: perspectives and trends.
We will explore this in a large variety of formats, for instance dialogue tables, meet & greet with our keynote speakers, workshops and masterclasses on:
- Adaptive management
- Project leadership
- Early and late integration
- Collaboration
- Education and learning from practice
- Beyond projects: Thinking the Future
What do the developments in these fields demand from the professional project manager and future and current researchers? “ADAPT OR DIE”: beyond the easy answers.
In short: unpredictable meetings with uncertain results. An unconventional congress program with unexpected insights from an unpredictable point of view. Are you willing to accept the challenge?
