About this Presentation
WiseTech Global is an organization proud of its DNA - TOC Thinking Processes, the Black Built in Thinking, Constraints, buffers, flow, enabling mantras and credo's.
As WiseTech grows, it will require reliable, repeatable, scalable delivery of projects. But how do you implement a project management 'way of working' with the structures necessary for scalability, without jeopardising the cultural need for agility, responsiveness, fast pace and high velocity?
This presentation will showcase:
The Core Conflict, and how it was arrived at.
The current environmental conditions (conditions ripe for success).
A sample of the content being implemented for the WiseTech Way Project Delivery Framework.
A taste of what the future Project Portfolio Management 'Way of Working' will look like.
What Will You Learn
To help you get the most value from this session, we’ve highlighted a few key points. These takeaways capture the main ideas and practical insights from the presentation, making it easier for you to review, reflect, and apply what you’ve learned.
The session reveals why project delivery failures persist even with strong solutions—because cultural resistance quietly overrides structure, logic, and tools.
It shows how the false conflict between structure and agility prevents organizations from scaling delivery, and why Critical Chain resolves this tension rather than choosing sides. 3 The presentation hints at how language, symbols, and “the way we do things” can weaponize improvement methods unless adoption is intentionally designed.
It illustrates how embedding CCPM into a tailorable, content-led delivery framework turns culture from a constraint into a force multiplier for execution.
