Decision Framework
I had a very interesting conversation with a friend of mine who is seeking advice on formulating a decision framework. Sometimes teams focus so much on collaboration that they lose sight of what is important - the product in the hands of the customer. Analysis paralysis creeps in, and despite a lot of meetings and discussion, nothing really gets delivered. Hence, there is a need for a decision framework, where if no decision can be made by the group, a decision will be made by the framework. Did any of you ever set such a system in place? If yes, share your thoughts; if no, ask questions about it.

On speed — I fully agree, but with a nuance.Right now everyone talks about “faster delivery” as if speed alone is the strategy. I’m not going to name organizations, but I keep hearing the same call in townhalls and public speeches: “deliver twice as much, twice as fast.”And teams do. They ship more, they ship faster—yet reality shows something uncomfortable: customers aren’t paying for what was delivered. We produced two tools in the time it previously took to produce one, and revenue still didn’t move. With the current obsession with speed, the market is going to be flooded with features and products no one asked for. The real leverage is not to deliver more or faster—it’s to deliver the right thing. Meaning: - something a customer is ready to pay for, or - an improvement that makes them keep paying for what they already use. Speed matters after clarity.If you know what the customer actually needs, then yes—execute fast.But speed without relevance is just accelerated waste.

@Nauman Mithani thank you! Yes, I like to mix different frameworks and created RADR a while ago, by experimenting with RACI and a few other frameworks to reshape it specifically for decision-making, not role documentation.
Next workshop options
Thank you to everyone who participated in the last workshop. It is time to start setting up the next one. I have some options here for everyone. Please let me know what resonates.

let's do the hard skills this time :)
AI is taking over PM tasks already
https://www.youtube.com/live/8UWKxJbjriY?si=kjh7p3DyG7_jVv02&t=797 This video shows exactly what @Aina Alive and I were discussing a few months ago on her podcast, where small administrative tasks will be done automatically and we won't need PM to spend their time on those. If anything, Aina and I were predicting this to happen in a year or two, but I guess the technology is running even faster. Is this the end of our profession? No, far from it, I think for many years to come there will be a need for a human in the loop, someone still needs to direct the agent to do things, someone needs to set the direction, someone needs to establish a delivery strategy. But basic management skills won't cut it in the next few years for entry to mid tier jobs. I think AI-related skills, especially orchestration, will be crucial for PMs.

Agreed. This really speeds up the evolution of our profession
Compliance
Do any of you fine folks required to keep your projects compliant with any internal policies enforced by outside standards like ISO9001 or ISO27001? I am searching for good examples of external audited compliance and how it is managed.

Hey Gerard, did you find anything? I don't know much about compliance, so would love to learn more
RACI like division of duties
I am looking for some help. I would like to divide areas of expertise among different members of my team, and create some sort of format where they can be an expert but also work with the rest of the team to uplift everyone's skillset. I am thinking of adopting the roles and responsibilities template -> https://www.atlassian.com/team-playbook/plays/roles-and-responsibilities But I was hoping that maybe some of you already have some sort of process or ideas you can share here. Any ideas are welcomed

I like using Miro board for this. I play different games but my favourite is a skill marketplace. At first people choose skills they are good at (experts). Then they receive coins and shop for skills they wish to have. Then we talk about actions on how to get these missing skills. We might also start talking about skills we need for this team/project at first and then see what we already have and what we need to "shop"
