Traitors back up to three? Back to back Faithful eliminations? has had us glued to our screens.

Every twist in this series has been a reminder that winning the game takes a lot more than luck.

When the numbers shift and the plan falls apart at the Round Table, it’s the players who plan ahead, read their stakeholders and adapt fast who stay in the game. It's a classic project management story.

We reckon both sides have been pulling out project management approaches to try and win the grand prize. Swipe to see the strategies we’ve been spotting from the Traitors and Faithfuls.

Which side do you think has the harder project to manage this series, the Traitors or the Faithfuls? Vote in the comments.

Ever feel like you're "walking in fog" on a project?

Carole Osterweil, executive coach and founder of Visible Dynamics, uses this phrase to describe that quiet, unspoken stress when we're unsure, overwhelmed, or struggling to see a clear way forward.

It's more common than you'd think. And when we stay silent, it can set off a Project Stress Cycle, where falling trust, poor communication and stakeholders asking for more and more information start to take a project off track.

This , we're speaking to all project professionals when we say: understanding how your response to stress affects your project (and the people on it) isn't about denying a can-do attitude. It's about knowing when honesty will serve you better than silence.

What an inspiring way to close the APM Women in Project Management Conference.

A huge thank you to Dame Dr Maggie Aderin MBE , scientist, broadcaster and the BBC's "face of space", for an engaging and thought-provoking closing keynote.

Drawing on her experiences in science, innovation and exploration, Maggie took us on a journey and challenged us to think bigger, push boundaries and embrace new possibilities.

💬 "Project Management is the collaborative glue that holds people together"

💬 "Think big. Be resilient. Bring people together and keep reaching for the stars"

A fitting end to a day filled with learning, connection and inspiration.

What was your biggest takeaway from Maggie's session?

The way we communicate shapes the way we lead.

A huge thank you to our keynote speaker SholaKaye - Communication and Empathy Speaker for opening the APM Women in Project Management Conference with a powerful session exploring communication, inclusive leadership and influence in high-pressure environments.

💭 "Embrace 'Emotional Audacity' to make bold and wise decisions -
connection is key to this.

An insightful and thought-provoking keynote that challenged us to think differently about how we connect, lead and create lasting change.

From AI and future skills to leadership and career-defining moments, this afternoon's discussions explored what it takes to thrive in a changing profession.

In Future skills in practice: making sense of what's next, delegates explored insights from the APM Skills Survey 2026, discussing the growing role of AI and data in project delivery, the importance of strategic prioritisation, and why accountability will always rest with people.

Attendees also joined Off the record: beyond the stage, where Sarah Jackson shared reflections on her career journey, the challenges she has faced and the experiences that have shaped her leadership approach.

Thank you to all our speakers and facilitators for sharing their expertise and insights throughout the afternoon.
