I had an opportunity to speak with Richard Morreale to get a sneak peek into what our PMI chapter can expect on Monday, June 11th. I was astonished when I heard about his experiences. Here is a brief bullet list:
• Worked for the Apollo Spaceship program – started out as a messenger
• Worked for Computer Sciences Corporation – started out managing small projects then ended up working on projects for the Army and Navy
• Spent roughly 10 years in Europe – working for England Revenue Services (really cool!)
• Developed CSC – UK’s first project management group
• Opened a project management consultancy group in UK
• Written several articles and books on project management such as Killer ideas for delivering successful projects and Top Gun Project Managers.
The chapter meeting is going to be on “Top Gun Project Managers” – What it takes to reach the top of the Project Management Profession. Richard will be discussing with us 8 strategies that each PMs should follow, how to become a master of paradox, and soft skills needed to be successful. He is a firm believer of a success equation that 20% of what we have learned is in the PMBOK and the other 80% is our attitude, behavior, and how we treat people.
If you haven’t register – you don’t want to miss this meeting:

PMI’s Project Management Professional (PMP)® credential is the most important industry-recognized certification for project managers. Recently I went for a PMP prep course by the training provider mentioned above, Instructor was too good and I passed with relative ease. Looking forwards to apply what I learned in PMP class in my company
