Project Management

 The other day, I was reading an EY blog explaining that tech companies are shifting toward diamond-shaped hiring , where fresh hiring is consolidating. And again, the same fear surfaced everywhere: “AI is going to take our jobs.” But why are we so frightened of AI? Today, the large majority of people — in India and outside — only use AI for the most basic tasks: writing emails, drafting letters, summarizing notes. Even in major consulting environments, there have been cases where teams relied heavily on AI tools to produce content that was later flagged by other AI tools. It simply shows one thing: People are overusing AI without understanding it. I sometimes wonder what the top institutes like IITs are teaching now — maybe prompt writing for Copilot or ChatGPT? And even the certificates we collect in India are becoming inflated in value , very similar to the hype around foreign consultancies that charge massive fees for writing fancy AI-themed reports.

 Working in a top EPC (Engineering, Procurement & Construction) company opens your eyes to a harsh truth: The biggest bottleneck to progress is not competition, not the client, not the project — it’s the company’s own internal 10% redundant workforce. Let me explain.

  Introduction: In project management, progress isn’t just about finishing on time — it’s about consistent direction, supervision, and motivation . Yet, in many organizations, decisions are made by managers sitting far from the ground reality. When projects miss a milestone, instead of doubling down on support, they withdraw oversight , assuming “it’s already delayed, what’s the use.” But that’s exactly when the corporate team’s presence matters the most.

What if we told you that India's rise in education and infrastructure isn't just being challenged by market forces, but systematically sabotaged by the very consultancies we admire?

  Introduction: Laying the Foundation for Project Success Project management is an art and science. While the processes may vary depending on the industry, the fundamental phases of Inception , Incubation , and Construction remain constant. Each phase carries distinct responsibilities and challenges, and understanding these can make the difference between success and failure. Whether you're managing a metro rail project in Mumbai or a complex flyover with Ultra-High Performance Fiber Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) , the right approach can ensure that the project stays on track.
