Project Management Trends for 2026: How AI, Skills & Roles Are Changing, on Project-Management.com, February 2, 2026.
Expert forecast:
“AI and its use are dominating all professional fields, and project management is not exempt. I think it will be interesting to see how industry tools begin to build and add AI features. For example, AI can help estimate resource needs and task durations and analyze, integrate, and present project data from multiple sources to provide a holistic view of project performance.”

Expert forecast:
“The decline in the number of project teams using Agile will continue, as will the long-term decline in predictive methodologies. By default, more teams will report using hybrid. Along with this shift, I expect we will eventually see associated hybrid project management frameworks and training.”
