Time: 12:00pm-1:00pm AEDT
Registrations close: 27 June 2023 or when fully booked
Webinar Fee: A$24.95 or FREE for ICCPM Members
This webinar will introduce fundamental academic research on the application of computational complexity theory (CCT) to human decision-making. CCT studies the computational resource requirements of solving computational problems. This webinar will present a brief introduction to the theory followed by the results of a series of laboratory experiments investigating the effects of computational complexity on human decision-making. This includes its effect on decision-making under stress, as well as when given tools to help solve the problem. Learn more »

Practical Lessons in Applying Complex Systems Theory
to Complex Project Risk Management
by Warren Black
This ICCPM webinar with Warren Black will discuss practical, case-tested methods for applying Complex Systems Theory to modern Project Risk Management. This is an excellent opportunity to explore Warren’s academic findings from his 7-year PhD research conducted at the Queensland University of Technology (QUT) titled, Investigating a Complex Systems Theory Approach to Complex Project Risk Management. The collected lessons include an extensive academic literature review combined with sample population testing across numerous high-profile, mega programs within natural resources, transport and general engineering infrastructure.

AI Based Approaches for Supply Chain Embedded Project Scheduling Problems
by Dr Ripon Chakrabortty
While scheduling the activities of multiple projects in dynamic environments, project managers face challenges that are typically due to the lack of timely, accurate, and consistent information; finite resource transfer times, and interdependencies among activities of different projects; and uncertain activity interruptions. Therefore, to avoid such shortcomings, an integrated framework considers both project management features and supply chain drivers; advanced solution approaches and better ways of dealing with uncertainties (e.g. artificial intelligence-based) can lead to an optimal decision support system for the whole business.

What Makes a Project Complex?
by Collin Smith
Research, as well as practitioner experience, indicates that traditional, linear project management methods, tools and techniques, while still necessary, are often insufficient to manage the complexities of 21st century projects. We must ask, however, what exactly makes a project complex, and if all projects are complex. Learn more »
Getting Governance Right Matters
by Ian Mack
The aim of this webinar is to present perspectives on important governance model elements when addressing complex projects that, while common sense, are easily dismissed as no different from existing organisational oversight. They are presented as a set of expectations that should be embraced as priorities because while most are not unique to complex projects, they are on occasion critical to achieving better outcomes in complexity.
