Calendar of Events

We are happy to announce this PMO breakfast forum. We held a few very successful events a few years ago, and would like to resume with a new series of forums.  Mike Doherty will be our speaker and has been a great presenter for our chapter in the past.  His focus for this presentation is information about how NASA governs projects aligned to their strategic plan.  The discussion will not be focused on a single project but rather how NASA’s portfolio of projects is governed. Here is an outline of his presentation.
