Thursday, 25 February 2021 A Message from our Chapter PresidentDear PMI Space Coast Members. I hope you continue to be well and safe as the Space Coast continues to endure this pandemic. As a reminder, PMI continues to support its practitioners and members in this time of disruption. As part of this commitment, I want to remind you that PMI has instituted a Membership Hardship Policy - Unemployed Members with 3 years of good standing membership are qualified for membership hardship grant by calling PMI Customer Care. PMI also offers many additional resources that can be found later in this newsletter. As we consider our next year and open Board positions, I encourage you all to consider volunteering to join our Board. Please see our Organization Chart and let us know if you'd like additional information about any of these positions. Please email me for information about board membership if you are interested volunteering to help us continue to improve our Space Coast Chapter. Our next Virtual Dinner Event is September 3rd at 6:00 PM and it is not to be missed. We are incredibly honored that Award-winning Project Management & Leadership Keynote Speaker, Author & Coach Andy Kaufman will present “Help for the Crazy Busy!”. More information about this event is later in this newsletter. Registration is required. We are also very happy to announce that we have partnered with Guerrila Project Management to enable our membership to attend "LIVE Virtual Disciplined Agile Lean Scrum Master (DALSM) Training". This interactive event will be held October 22nd and 23rd and enable you to earn 10.5 Technical PDUs and 3.5 Leadership PDUs.

Thank you to Dr. Jonathan Reed, Ms. Robin Bell, and Dr. Curtis Curry for supporting our Professional Development Day this past weekend.

Please note that we always welcome the opportunity to support our members who are willing deliver presentations and webinars so please let us know if you would like to do a webinar or presentation.

"Help for the Crazy Busy!” by Andy Kaufman, Award-winning Project Management & Leadership Keynote Speaker, Author & Coach Join us for our exciting September 3rd dinner event "Help for the Crazy Busy!", starting at 6:00 PM. One of the most consistent concerns expressed to us by professionals and teams around the world is this: We don’t have enough time! The stress of having too much to do and not enough time to do it is overwhelming. In this interactive keynote, Andy shares practical lessons to help you get a better handle on what it takes to more successfully manage your time and commitments. Topics include understanding the role of taking care of yourself (including getting more sleep and exercise), factors that drive procrastination (and strategies to overcome them that will help you manage your time and projects), ways to say No without saying "No", and strategies to manage interruptions. Andy shares specific strategies to help you get more control over your time with less things falling through the cracks, allowing you to focus on the most important priorities. You will leave with a helpful list of books and other resources to continue the learning after the session. Registration is required. We will send a link to the secure Zoom meeting the afternoon of the event. If for any reason you don't receive the link by 5:30 PM the day of the event, please email vpcommunications@pmispacecoast.org for assistance. Tickets: Members- Free, Non-members- $10
