A PM’s Perspective on Project Alchemy and the Science of Change
Episode 5
Thursday, 18 March, 2021

Marcel Thompson is a Master Scheduler, project specialist, gin maker, and as you’ll discover quite the raconteur. In our Quay Conversation this month, Bec chats with Marcel about the alchemy of project delivery and why change management is so critical. With a background in manufacturing and supply chain, Marcel has more than 20 years of operational planning experience, forged in the FMCG, utilities, and engineering services industries. In this conversation, we explore his understanding of the ‘alchemy’ of project delivery that comes from being able to bring a wide range of experience into a team, particularly when leading people through considerable change. It starts with chemistry and curiosity which provides a surprising but logical link to how change can unfold in project delivery. In addition to his project experience, Marcel is an award-winning gin maker and storyteller, author of Still Magic and host of The Distillers' Voice podcast.
