New this year: the PMI Women’s Breakfast featuring Andrea Quinn
After Andrea Quinn was taken out of work one day on a stretcher, she decided to change her life. Brought to the brink by overworking and by trying to meet unrealistic expectations, she became a life coach to help women achieve an empowering work/life balance. Quinn’s remarks during the PMI Women’s Breakfast: “Essential Empowerment Curriculum for Women” will serve as a guide to achieving respect and career success while remaining true to personal values.
After the breakfast, Quinn will deliver the “Tools to Reinvent Yourself in the New World of Business” keynote to all attendees. Her address will provide advice on how to navigate a changing business landscape by implementing personal development and self-accountability. She will facilitate discussions about how to accept and be open to change, how to make empowering personal and professional choices, and how to build community.
Early birds will reap all the benefits of PMI23
Starting on the morning of the first day of PMI23, the PMI Inspiring Leaders Program will cultivate the creative, leadership and team-building skills of those who arrive a little early to PMI23. Working closely with a group of plumbing manufacturing professionals in a setting that inspires – Seattle’s Museum of Flight – program facilitator Nicole Bianchi will explore how to be intentional as leaders and clear on leadership philosophy and how to set expectations, build relationships that are clear and kind, and have conversations that matter.
Her goal will be to help participants build working relationships of accountability and engagement that increase productivity and results. This pre-conference program on Oct. 23 is open to all employees of PMI member companies, no matter their position or experience level.
