President's Corner

Hello PMINEO!!

I love the rebirth of spring – finally seeing the buds on the trees and blooms on the early flowers (or trying to blossom!). I am excited to be outside without having to layer-up clothing for warmth!

I am also super excited about the rebirth – or re-emergence, as I like to call it – of our Chapter into the Next Normal. In fact, I am writing this on a plane, returning from PMI’s first in-person event since the start of Covid. It was a smaller Leadership Institute Meeting than normal (~200 vs 1200+). Regardless, it was incredible to share stories with other North American chapter leaders about how they adapted to fully remote programming (much like we did); how they struggled with membership decline (most around 20%, similar to our experience); and how they plan to re-engage with members in person and also virtually to return to growth.

We are all struggling together to understand exactly what the next phase will look like; at PMINEO we are ready to give it a try! We have two upcoming in-person events planned: our Professional Development Day (Thu, May 19, hosted at BW) and a family service project & picnic at one of the MetroParks this summer. (Details are still forming… look for more info on our website in the coming months.)

You can find info & registration for the PDD here.

In the Fall, we expect to deliver programs in a ‘hybrid’ model – with both in-person and virtual options. There are technical challenges to overcome for this, and we are learning from peer Chapters as well as local companies. If you, or your company/academic institution, has experience with this – and possibly a technology-enabled room, please let us know. (You can email me directly) It is difficult to find a cost-effective model that can be executed by part-time volunteers. Please help us out!

Please check the website (www.pmineo.org) for all of our upcoming events. And review our partner offerings where you can take certification prep classes and earn PDUs learning from video-based content or self-paced classes.

Be sure to follow us on LinkedIn and other social media channels! LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube,

See you in-person soon!

Speakers for our Chapter's Events

Our PMI Chapter welcomes proposals from passionate speakers interested in sharing their experiences, knowledge and expertise on such topics as general business and strategy, leadership, project management, and technical or industry-specific specialties. Our Professional Development events provide professional development units (PDUs) of educational information necessary for those attendees maintaining certification designations. Speakers are also eligible to claim PDUs for their creation and delivery of the presentation material.
