The PMI Central Ohio Chapter works to create new programs and improve existing ones for the benefit of the chapter and the local community.  The success of the chapter and our ability to provide high quality programs is only achievable with the help of our members who volunteer. It is through the dedication and commitment of individuals like you that we are, and will continue to be, successful.  We are always looking for volunteers to join our team as the Chapter continues to grow and broaden its services to the member community. You can volunteer on the leadership team or on one of the committees.

March 2010 Central Ohio PMI Programs  Theme:  – Getting Results

Successful Project Managers know they are expected to get results.  Successful project execution continues to be a critical success factor and PM’s are responsible for building quality relationships, handling conflict and controversy, ensuring customer satisfaction, and driving productivity, efficiency, and innovation.  Leading-edge best practices can make all the difference between leading consistently successful projects and playing the victim with troubled projects.  Project Managers need to be able to perform at their best, benefiting their projects, organizations, and careers.  Ensuring your PM toolbox contains this knowledge is the driving reason for March’s theme: Getting Results.  Each of March’s events (Mar 11 Chapter Evening Meeting - presented by Jeffrey Ford;  Mar 17 Morning Meeting – presented by Rebecca A Ansley, PMP;  and Mar 25 - 26 Co-Sponsored PD Workshop – presented by Clark A. Campbell) will address a different aspect of the theme.

April 2010 Central Ohio PMI Programs    Theme:  – Be The Expert

"Experts" are the ones that everyone goes to when they need answers on a particular topic.  While the "experts" aren't the only ones who know what they're talking about, they are the ones that are good at letting everyone know.  As organizations change with increasing speed, so does the pace and pressure which employees must respond. Without the ability to change effectively, employees become resentful and organizations lose their ability to respond to increasing demands and pressures. Project Managers knowing how to position themselves as an expert is the driving reason for April’s theme: Be The Expert.  Each of April’s events (Apr 15 Chapter Evening Meeting and Apr 16 PD Workshop - presented by Diane Alexander;  Apr 21 Morning Meeting – presented by Laura Rees;  and Apr 24 Saturday PD Workshop – presented by Sean Pales) will address a different aspect of the theme.
