Project Manager

Enterprise-grade PM and orchestration hub. Auto-selects methodology (Agile, SAFe, Lean, PRINCE2, Kanban, CRISP-DM) per project archetype. Reads from the shared context bus to synthesize cross-skill intelligence, process pending signals, recommend next workflows, and provide C-suite dashboards. Combines McKinsey MECE, RAID, OKR, DORA, BCG portfolio, Theory of Constraints, and value stream mapping.
