"In today's fast-paced educational environment, technology teams face limited resources, reduced staffing, and numerous priorities, making time a scarce asset and technology being seen as a transaction-based commodity. To support student success, we must create more time. Traditional project management helps but brings challenges in complexity, communication, and adoption.

This session will introduce a strategic project management framework to streamline projects, reduce wasted efforts, and communicate effectively with stakeholders. We will also evaluate project success and identify growth areas. Attendees will learn how to use standard office tools, automated workflows, and generative AI to improve time management and efficiency in their department and district."
