\"iStock_000004854877overhead<\/a>ESI International, the world’s leading project management training company, today announced the release of its top 10 trends in project management for 2013. The 2013 trends reveal that expert leadership is lacking in all areas of project management, portfolio management and program management.<\/p>\n

Many of this year\u2019s trends focus on the need to improve project skills, process and the overall management of our initiatives.\u00a0 This is good news for Team development consulting firms offering team development resources for project management firms<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u201cThis year\u2019s trends bring a murky problem into specific light,\u201d said J. LeRoy Ward, Executive Vice President, ESI International. \u201cLeadership
\nskills are lacking within the project community, and until project managers learn how to properly lead teams and their projects, project
\nexecution will continue to be a problem.\u201d<\/p>\n

ESI\u2019s top 10 trends for project management include:<\/p>\n

1. Organizations will continue to call for strong project leaders but will focus on investments in hard skills<\/p>\n

2. Agile implementation will be viewed in some organizations as a failure, but for the wrong reasons<\/p>\n

3. Project management is not just for project managers anymore<\/p>\n

4. Large projects pose unique challenges that are increasingly tough to overcome<\/p>\n

5. PMOs will focus on proving their worth and driving innovation<\/p>\n

6. The U.S. government will upgrade its PM certification in the face of rising criticism<\/p>\n

7. Improving vendor management practices will top the list of skills for project managers<\/p>\n

8. Continued poor project performance in many organizations will result in more PMOs being terminated<\/p>\n

9. Portfolio management will take on a greater role as funding continues to tighten and the number of projects grows<\/p>\n

10. Organizations will adopt Agile to accelerate time to market but what they ultimately achieve may be a different story<\/p>\n

\u201cMany of this year\u2019s trends focus on the need to improve project skills, process and the overall management of our initiatives,\u201d said
\nWard. \u201cIt is clear that it is no longer possible to hire project managers and expect results. We need our PMs to be experts, and take control
\nof our projects to get maximum results.\u201d<\/p>\n

ESI\u2019s top 10 trends in project management is put together annually by ESI senior executives and subject matter experts.<\/p>\n

In conjunction with the release of the trends, ESI has released a top 10 trends in project management video, recorded by Mark Bashrum, ESI
\nVice President, Corporate Marketing & Strategic Intelligence. This video offers a discussion of the trends, including original insight and
\ninformation about the trends and their impact on projects.<\/p>\n
