Abstract
The shift from traditional IT projects to artificial intelligence (AI) initiatives has transformed the technological landscape, introducing new complexities and challenges. This article explores the critical role of the human element in AI implementation, drawing on insights from two decades of IT project management. By addressing key human challenges such as resistance to change, skill gaps, ethical concerns, and the need for cross-functional collaboration, the article underscores the importance of adapting traditional project management skills to AI projects. It provides a detailed examination of stakeholder management, change management, team building, and communication strategies, highlighting their relevance to AI initiatives. Through a hypothetical case study, the article demonstrates the application of these principles in a real-world scenario, offering practical lessons and best practices. Finally, it discusses future trends and the evolving role of project managers in the AI era, emphasizing the need for continuous learning, emotional intelligence, and a balanced approach to technical and people management skills.
