Building green community with fellow PMPs
As a member of the Project Management Institute’s San Francisco Bay Area chapter, I engage with local community leaders to discover, plan, and execute stewardship events. I help source expert speakers for our initiatives, and ensure the smooth operation of our events. In addition, I pitch in with program functions such as maintaining the organization’s web page and taking turns providing updates to the executive board.
I also wite articles for the PMI newsletter when needed.
I’ve brought my professional expertise into this role by refining and automating event processes using QR codes, Google Forms, and Google Sheets. I’ve also introduced fun thematic trivia icebreaker games before our virtual events to encourage community camaraderie.
My work with the Sustainability Team allows me to make a meaningful impact in my local community while continuously expanding my own project management knowledge.
