Message from the Chair - June |
|
 Greetings,
So it's now summer, and despite improvements in the corporate banking community, unemployment continues to rise. So, hey! Why not spend some of that idle time volunteering for the Marketing & Sales SIG? We're looking for a few good men and women to fill some of our recently vacated board positions. Officers get 10 PDUs for every 12 months of volunteer time, and it's great fun being part of tomorrow's project & program management community. For those of your who are interested, please let me

Also, in case you missed it, please log into the SIG website (into the vault) and call up our webinar from last week entitled "Marketing Operations and the Project Management Engine" with Kurt Ballard, Senior Partners with ZIG ZAG Marketing. Each webinar is good for one PDU, and this latest presentation is packed with lots of great tips and best practices for project/program managers who are interested in the more strategic aspects of applied project
management.
Thank you for your membership and participation.
I look forward to seeing you online!
Sincerely,
Dave Hutchinson, PMP
Chair, Marketing & Sales SIG

"New Web Seminar Program for PMI MSSIG Members and Marketing & Sales Community" |
|
PMI MSSIG is excited to offer a new, free for members-only benefit - a year-long program of web seminars. Non-PMI MSSIG members who are part of our Marketing & Sales Community may also participate in the web seminars with a 10% off regular webinar rates (use promo code: marketingsalespm). These web seminars will cover a variety of topics (at least 10 over the course of the year), and will be oriented towards experienced project managers. It is hard to find good continuing-education material for experienced project managers, and these will cover topics like communicating with senior executives, strategy, and practical issues like scheduling and budgeting.
