We need bold ideas to solve world challenges- says PMI’s CMO – Businessday NG

Menaka Gopinath, Chief Marketing Officer at Project Management Institute, PMI has said that organisations and individuals need bold ideas to solve the world’s biggest challenges.

She however noted that ideas alone don’t drive change, but “progress happens when people turn vision into action.” According to her, projects are how great ideas become real, and the professionals who lead them make that possible.

She said this when TIME Studios in partnership with PMI unveiled Season 2 of The Solutionaries, a documentary series about the project success behind climate solutions that scale and what it takes to move from a solution that works once to one that works everywhere.

A statement from the PMI explained that The Solutionaries, produced in partnership with TIME Studios and Good is the New Cool, and directed by Edward Buckles Jr., highlights the often unseen work behind transformative ideas. “The series explores how innovation moves from concept to lasting value through collaboration, resilience, and determined execution.”

The statement further said that The Solutionaries are transforming live music, reducing shipping emissions, and building sovereign AI to unlock better climate, economic and social intelligence – demonstrating the power of project management to deliver real, measurable progress.”

The statement said that Season 2 features Adam Gardner and Lauren Sullivan of REVERB, Alisha Fredriksson of Seabound, and Kate Kallot of Amini. Together, their work across music, maritime decarbonisation, and artificial intelligence is addressing urgent global challenges.

Their stories demonstrate how meaningful change happens when companies connect their vision with the right people, resources, strategy, and disciplined delivery.

“The ability to turn ambition into execution has become a defining business capability as organisations face mounting pressure to reinvent and deliver sustainable change,” the statement said.
