President's message - September 2023
Hello NCPMI Mem
bers!
As we navigate the ever-evolving landscape of project management, it's crucial we stay attuned to innovative strategies that can set us apart and elevate our impact. Today, I want to shed light on the undeniable power of storytelling in our marketing efforts and the profound benefits it can bring to our chapter.
Storytelling is more than just relaying information. It's a bridge that connects us on a deeper level. Just as a project requires a well-defined narrative to guide its journey, our chapter's endeavors can be enhanced through storytelling.
Think about how our experiences at NCPMI events like the incredibly successful recent Annual Conference (the session is available for 90 days - reach out to VP_profdev@ncpmi.org if you have any issues accessing), Chapter Meetings, Volunteer Events, and more, showcase the journeys of our members. By sharing these stories, we humanize our efforts and inspire others to join us, fostering a sense of community and belonging.
As we embark on this journey of storytelling, let's remember that each of us contributes to the larger narrative of the NCPMI Chapter. Together, we can transform our vision into a shared reality that resonates with everyone we reach.
NCPMI is writing the next chapter in our leadership story. The 2023 NCPMI Election will secure the next group of elected board members to lead us into 2024 and beyond. Please consider an NCPMI elected board position as part of your leadership journey. The call for nominations is now open. Visit https://ncpmi.org/about-us/2023-ncpmi-chapter-elections for more information.
Thank you for your dedication and commitment to our chapter's success. Here's to a future filled with compelling stories and boundless opportunities.
Thank you all!
Craig Kessler
VP, Marketing

Grow Your Skills
It is particularly important for Project Managers to maintain and improve their project management knowledge and skills to stay competitive in the market. PMP certification is a critical component. As, during the resent years, project management discipline took a step toward more flexible and dynamic project management methodologies, in addition to the traditional waterfall approach, several new emerging methodologies became in high demand. Thus, training and credentialing in these methodologies became highly sough after among Project Management professionals. It is especially relevant in today's economic climate.
