Will AI Make the Integration Management Office Obsolete?
Read the article

AI won’t kill the Integration Management Office—it’ll finally make it strategic. Traditional PMI drowns in manual check-ins, static decks, and “green box” theater, which erodes situational awareness and slows decisions. That means tighter loops, clearer ownership, and board-ready reporting as a by-product—not more meetings.

Many organizations lean on PMOs to keep big programs and portfolios under control. Yet despite all the reporting, slides, and status packs, leaders often still don’t have a clear picture of what’s going on. That’s not because people don’t try, it’s because traditional reporting systems are built the wrong way for today’s work.

Most teams don’t lack data, they lack a clear, shared view of what’s actually happening. Updates live in different tools, risks surface late, and decisions get buried in meetings and decks.

Research shows that poor communication, unclear ownership, and hidden dependencies create friction that teams only notice when it’s already too late. This article looks at why managing cross-functional dependencies is so difficult, and what teams can do to reduce confusion, surface risks earlier, and stay aligned as work gets more complex.
Leadership Insights

In this recap from the Elisa x Miro AI Collaboration panel Sami discusses how AI marks a turning point for design professionals, shifting the discipline from producing discrete artifacts toward shaping context—intent, flows, and underlying ideas. As a result, meaningful design becomes inherently strategic, centered on purpose and sound business decisions rather than outputs like wireframes.
