Management Solutions Corporation at PM Symposium 2026

Management Solutions Corporation (MSOL), based in Minato, Tokyo, is excited to announce its participation as a sponsor for the PM Symposium 2026, to be held on September 3rd and 4th at the Tower Hall Funabori, organized by the Project Management Association of Japan (PMAJ). This event will feature discussions on the evolving role of project management education in the age of Artificial Intelligence (AI).

As AI technology rapidly advances, MSOL has been contemplating the potential for AI to take on parts of the Project Management Office (PMO) functions. It has been recognized that conventional project management knowledge education alone will not suffice; rather, there is a growing need to foster skills that cannot be replaced by AI. This includes building 'meaning-making abilities' to interpret AI-generated outputs effectively and developing 'non-cognitive skills' that serve as the practical foundation for applying knowledge in complex settings.

At the symposium, MSOL plans to address these four common misconceptions surrounding AI’s role in PM education: 1) AI will replace PMOs, 2) PM knowledge education is outdated, 3) Non-cognitive skills cannot be developed, and 4) Technology will diminish the value of human oversight. To counter these misconceptions, MSOL will present its unique definition of the 'Seven Competency Model,' which emphasizes essential skills like goal-setting, decision-making, collaboration, execution, and the capacity for learning and adaptation.

The Seven Competencies

During the sponsor presentation, MSOL will unveil its Seven Competencies: 1) Goal-setting power, 2) Value conceptualization and realization, 3) Meaning-making ability, 4) Judgment and decision-making support, 5) Collaboration and consensus-building, 6) Execution and change facilitation, and 7) Learning and renewal capacity. Furthermore, it will showcase implementation examples of these competencies within MSOL’s PMO certification programs.

Presentation Overview

Title: Project Management Education in the AI Era - Practice of Knowledge Education and Non-Cognitive Skills
Category: Sponsor Presentation (EX-05)
Speakers: Shingo Yokochi (Assistant to the President, Strategic Promotion Office) and Miho Sato (Quality Cross-Group)
Distribution: On-demand from September 5 to October 3.

Comments from the Speakers:
Shingo Yokochi emphasizes, “In an era where AI manages information processing and organizing options, the role of PM/PMO does not diminish but rather evolves. This presentation will convey the potential of a third form of talent development through our Seven Competencies.”
Miho Sato reflects, “Non-cognitive skills are often seen as unteachable, yet I believe they can be cultivated with the right learning design. I will discuss how experiential training transforms competencies into actionable frameworks.”

MSOL will also present its AI-powered project management platform, PROEVER®. Leveraging 20 years of PMO expertise, PROEVER® employs an 'AI EPMO' approach to eliminate information silos within organizations, facilitating swift decision-making and effective execution.
