Presentation summary: Evolution has(n’t) overtaken PPM!? (together with Krešimir Musa)

In days long past, in a time when QED hadn’t even been conceived, there were small conferences called PPM. In engineer speak, it is said that today’s QED emerged from the roots of an event that dealt with project portfolio management. We witness many evolutionary steps in software development in our modern times, within the methodological sphere but particularly within the technological one. Yet in today’s world, in which direction does PPM evolve? Does it impart to us a necessary agile step toward managing efficiency instead of utility? How has CLM and ITSM influenced the development of portfolio management? Can the modern PM compare to the entrepreneur, or is this just a myth?
