Spring is Here?

 
 
 

Since the beginning of the year … following the holiday break … our chapter activities have been resumed and are moving forward.  We are back in full swing.  We have had several very successful monthly chapter meetings with great topics:

  • Creativity and Innovation in Project Management presented by Paul Warner, PMP.
  • The Art of Stakeholder Management presented by James Brown, Ph.D.
  • Building the First "Steamship" in History presented by John Laurence Busch.
 

Aside from the interesting and informative project management lessons from the presentations, you will benefit from the networking opportunities with other chapter members and guests. Please join us.

 
As an on-going key focus the Board of Directors and I are working to explore additional opportunities for providing value to our chapter members.  Though working with our volunteers we are pursuing several new avenues.  Let the Board of Directors and myself know what additional programs you would like to see and how you might help us more forward with them.
In addition to chapter events and opportunities, as a member of PMI there are many resources available to you.  One opportunity that you should consider is becoming involved in a Community of Practice.  These communities are at no additional charge (i.e., free to PMI members) and are " … interactive places for you to meet online, discuss ideas and build the profession’s body of knowledge.  Collaborate with your peers worldwide through wikis, webinars, discussion forums and blogs. Use shared documents, surveys, announcements, popular links and a member directory. Learn from others who share your interests in specific industries or areas of practice."
You can find more information and get started at:

Last, but certainly not least, please participate in our annual election of the President and Board of Directors.  Additional information is available on our website, and you will receive email notifications … if your email address is update on the PMI website … please make sure it is!
I hope you will be participating in and contributing to chapter events in 2013.  I look forward to speaking with you at our next meeting … hopefully, when spring has fully arrived!
