?? Happy International Project Management Day! Reflecting on my journey—from my studies at Georgetown to leading projects at the state level and my current volunteer role as President of PMI NH—I’m reminded that project management is all about people. Each connection has enriched my career and inspired me to keep growing as a leader and giving back to the community. Grateful for the mentors, teams, and friends who make a difference every day. Here’s to continued building, solving, and pushing boundaries together! #InternationalProjectManagementDay #IPMDay2024 #ProjectManagement #PeopleFirst #PMINH

Register at https://lnkd.in/gHzzkUsg Download Information Brochure: https://lnkd.in/gNAp4nGb A Collaboration of PMI chapters pooling their resources to create a special event. InspirePM: A Journey into Project Management Excellence This is an interesting question. What does excellent project management look like? One might immediately pointed to time, budget and scope.?Others might look at the project culture and ask whether it was healthy and strong? Or we might look at the customers and ask if they are happy.?Maybe it all depends on them? There are so many ways we could look at this concept of project management excellence.?So, let's spend the day together and explore tools, processes, ideas, and each other’s opinions on the subject.?We'll try to get as many opinions and ideas together in one spot and if we can't consume it all at once we'll record it so we can catch up afterwards. Sounds like a plan. Welcome to InspirePM: A Journey into Project Management Excellence.?This is an opportunity for all of us to learn from some smart project management professionals and from each other. Our event features: 9 world-class speakers keynote speaker Executive panel? Peer-to-peer discussion groups? and prizes all-day $100 PMI Members $120 non-members This conference delivers as many as 17 PDUs. If you stay with us for the day, you can collect six PDUs.?BUT, as a registered delegate, you will get access to the recordings of the rest of the 11 PDUs – available for three months following the event.?

It's rare on a BoD to find such enthusiastic and passionate individuals but our group doesn't lack in that department! Susan Aznive, MPS, PMP our current Board President gives a small testimonial to the application of project management in something as relatable as pasta making.
