In Conclusion…

In Conclusion…
• How We Think About Sustainability Is An Importance
• We often substitute it with ‘endurance’ or ‘stamina’
• There are very different implications on the toll that perception
places on us
• Why We Became Project Managers Varies
• Whether challenge, variety, opportunity or because we just found it
• Sustaining that over time is going to be challenging for anyone
• What We Want Out Of Project Management May Change
• And what project management wants of us may also change
• Or worse, be exactly the same, over and over again
• We Need To Define Where We Want To Go Next
• What are the opportunities that will keep us engaged?
• What changes are required to realize those opportunities?
• What support do we need to negotiate with others (and ourselves)?
• What are our wants and needs in order to get there? 32
