In our spare time we have quite a bit to do with project management conferences. The three most recent have been:
- PMOZ, Melbourne Australia (Pat & Lynda)
- PMAsia, Singapore (Pat)
- PMI Global Congress, Denver (Lynda)
PMOZ was a great success and the 2009 conference will be in Canberra, in early August. Visit the PMOZ web site for updates. Apart from a great speaking program PMOZ is renowned for its parties……
PMAsia was a far more dignified affair held mid October. Feedback from delegates showed that the conference was highly beneficial to those who attended. Planning has started for the next PMAsia in around 14 months time.
Lynda was a speaker at the PMI Global Congress in Denver. This is the granddaddy of all project management conferences with over 4,100 delegates. A copy of Lynda’s paper From Commander to Sponsor: Managing Upwards in the Project Environment can be downloaded from http://www.mosaicprojects.com.au/Resources_Papers_077.html
This is just a brief post to start this topic. More informative posts from the IPMA Congress in Rome will be available next week.
