Thank you for your support!
Dear Members and Volunteers,
The board is very excited as we begin planning for 2023. 2023 will be a great year as we come together, think creatively, and deliver for our customers. We are anticipating our members needs and will do our best to think from their perspective as we put together the plans for 2023. Our plan is to review our current state and strategic positions, prioritize our objectives and develop a 2023 strategic plan. In 2023, we will execute, manage, and revise these plans to meet our membership needs.

Growing Tomorrow’s Leaders through Mentoring
As we approach spring here in the Fort Worth area, it is time to think about a fresh start in our Project Management careers. Specifically, in 2022 what can you do to improve your professional skills? The Fort Worth PMI Chapter would like to suggest that one sure fire way to make improvements is to become a mentor or mentee.
More on the FWPMI Mentoring Program
This month the FWI PM Mentoring Program has three active mentoring projects (Three mentors mentoring three mentees). The program also completed five mentoring projects in the 1H2022. We are always looking for more mentors and mentees for this great program.
Several Mentees and Mentors have expressed a desire to establish a “PM Shadowing Program” as well as development of a “Chapter Study Group” for the PMI Examination. The Director of the FW PMI Mentor Program is asking if there is any interest or suggestions for either of these two potential programs. Send ideas, suggestions, or volunteer willingness to mentorprogram@fwpmi.org.
If you are a past Mentor or Mentee, please be sure your profile is updated.
PMI: Why Social Impact Matters
“Projects have the power to make a better world – to create new jobs; advance diversity, equality and inclusion; provide essential infrastructure; enhance education; improve public health and safety."
As part of PMI’s 50th Anniversary Celebration in 2019, PMI partnered with the United Nations to identify 17 Sustainable Development Goals. From the PMI website, “The UN's Sustainable Development Goals are the blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all. They address the global challenges we face, including those related to poverty, inequality, climate, environmental degradation, prosperity, and peace and justice.”

Volunteers are our life blood...
PMI is, was, and always will be about volunteers. Founded in 1969 by five volunteers who sought to standardize and promote the project management profession, PMI’s volunteer force, greater than 10,000 strong, is larger than many other professional membership associations. Volunteerism is so important to PMI that it is a Core Value of the organization. When you volunteer, you not only enrich your membership experience and earn PDUs, you expand your professional network, improve your knowledge, and hone your leadership skills. Volunteerism is also a strategic goal for the Ft. Worth Chapter. The goal intends to strengthen the execution of the existing volunteer model to provide mutual benefit to both members and the chapter: Volunteer Engagement includes:
