Chapter Meeting – July 2021: PMI 4.0 Strategy and Solutions: Global perspective of PMI for Project Management

Abstract:

The world is changing, and projects are more important than ever.  Project managers are being asked to support and lead their organizations through times of immense change, people without project knowledge are being asked to lead projects, and organizations are becoming more socially responsible.  How do we build the plane while flying it? 

The Project Management Institute saw the need to evolve back in 2017, and has been working behind the scenes to become the PMI that people who run projects need it to be.  Come learn why we’ve changed, where we’re going, and how we will continue to be the source for project managers of the future. 

Learning Objectives:

1.     Learn PMI’s 4.0 Strategy

2.     See the latest tools for your professional journey

3.     Understand how we’re a part of making the world a better place
