United States, 20th Feb 2026 – As artificial intelligence reshapes nearly every corner of modern business, one profession stands at a critical crossroads: project management. In AI Advantage for Project Managers, technology executive and AI practitioner Steven Corey delivers a timely, practical, and deeply grounded guide for professionals navigating this transformation, not as spectators, but as leaders.

Unlike books that speculate about a distant future, AI Advantage for Project Managers is rooted in the reality that project leaders face today. AI is already embedded in planning, scheduling, forecasting, reporting, and risk management. The question is no longer whether AI belongs in project management, but how to use it responsibly, strategically, and effectively. Steven’s book answers that question with clarity and confidence.

Drawing on more than 34 years of experience in information technology, enterprise systems, and project leadership, Steven brings a rare dual perspective to the subject. As CTO and Co-founder of BabyFlix Inc., and a former leader at organizations including Oracle, MySQL, and Accenture, he has spent over a decade implementing AI-driven systems in real business environments. That experience informs every chapter of this book.

AI Advantage for Project Managers walks readers through the entire project lifecycle, from initiation and scope definition to execution, governance, and closure. Each chapter demonstrates how AI enhances, not replaces, human judgment by automating routine work, identifying patterns hidden in data, and providing early warnings before problems escalate. Readers learn how predictive analytics improve scheduling and budgeting, how intelligent automation reduces administrative overhead, and how AI-driven insights support smarter decision-making under pressure.

What sets this book apart is its balanced, human-centered approach. Steven Corey is clear that AI is not a substitute for leadership, empathy, or strategic thinking. Instead, he positions AI as a powerful partner: one that frees project managers to focus on what machines cannot: aligning stakeholders, resolving conflict, guiding teams through uncertainty, and delivering real business value.

The book also addresses the concerns many professionals quietly hold. It explores ethical considerations, bias in data-driven systems, transparency in AI-generated insights, and the risks of over-reliance on automation. Rather than glossing over these challenges, Corey equips readers to confront them with awareness and responsibility.

Designed for IT project managers, PMO leaders, program managers, and executives, AI Advantage for Project Managers requires no technical background in data science. Its language is clear, practical, and grounded in real-world application, making advanced concepts accessible without oversimplifying their impact.

As organizations race to adapt to AI-driven work models, this book arrives as a vital resource for those tasked with leading projects through change. AI Advantage for Project Managers is not about chasing trends; it is about building competence, confidence, and credibility in an era where intelligent tools are becoming inseparable from successful delivery.

AI Advantage for Project Managers is available now and stands as an essential read for professionals who want to remain relevant, effective, and in control as the future of project management unfolds.
