Abstract
Modern-PM has been shaped for a half century. It is still not internationally standardized as explicit knowledge, and would still be on developing stage when regarded as one of the engineering or scientific subjects. Hence, there would be such questions as what would happen if all the current PM best-practices were applied, or which areas of modern-PM should be much more advanced in the near future? This paper tries to summarize the trends and foresight, based on recent modern-PM activities, discussions and available data. As a conclusion, it is explained why personal-PM could be one of the rapidly advancing areas of modern-PM.
