Hello, all! I hope everyone has recuperated from the holiday season! Just wanted to give you an update on the chapter formation process… we are so close! Just TWO more members until we reach the goal of 25!
The status of the action steps for Gate 5 are shown here. You will notice that a logo was submitted to PMI on January 13. I have sent the logo that you chose to PMI for approval. The winning logo is show below. Please help us get the word out about the chapter and the meeting that is scheduled for this month. Visiting local project sites is a great way to broaden our exposure to the various methodologies used by project managers in the area, and we hope that you will come away from the tour of Republic High School with a new appreciation for the complexities of construction and state-funded projects.
As always, if you or someone you know has a question about PMI®, the local chapter or the project management profession in general, please send them our way. We will do our best to answer any questions you may have.
As always, have a great day!
Juanita Woods, MBA, PMP, MCITP
Chapter Formation Liaison, Incoming President
