Hi everyone,It's been a big few weeks for the PMI. It's celebrated it's 50th Birthday in early October and launched a new brand and logo. I was lucky enough to connect up with Vindy Anderson, VP for Brand Management while at the LIM in Philadelphia just before the new brand was launched. Then, on the day of the launch, I did some roving mic interviews to get a pulse from the congress attendees on what their initial perspectives were of the new logo. You can hear all of this in this month's episode which I hope you enjoy.For more about the new brand, check out For even more on the new brand and the Project Economy, check out the following:Two places for more on The Project Economy:- https://www.pmi.org/the-project-economy- https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/welcome-project-economy-cindy-anderson-cae/More on PMI's brand refresh: https://www.pmi.org/about/leadership-governance/ceo-corner/straight-talk-with-sunilMore on stakeholder management as part of the brand refresh: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/stakeholder-ma

Welcome to Episode 17 of the Ireland Chapter of PMI Podcast. In this month's episode, I talk with Nader K. Rad. Nader is a Project Management expert and is av very well respected Author, Speaker and Adviser. Nader's goal to help organizations and individuals improve their project management systems one step at a time, by the realization of their existing potentials, incorporation of the global best practices, and keeping everything as simple and practical as possible. This is not easy or fast and this is not a one size fits all solution, but it’s possible. Nader's words, not mine.In this interview, we talk about a set of principals that Nader believes are key for project management across all frameworks. We also discuss Nader's inclusion in working groups on the upcoming PMBOK 7th Edition.For more about Nader, check him out on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/naderkrad/Thanks for listening & please do get in touch if you have ideas, feedback, suggestions for the podcast.Regards,Rob

Welcome to Part 2 of the LIM Dublin Interviews from May 2019.It was an amazing week by all accounts. While I only had the fortune to be at LIM for 2 days, I was able to pack a lot in. During the 2 days, I was also able to connect with a number of attendees at the LIM which included Members of PMI at HQ in Philadelphia and Chapter leaders from across the globe. This episode shares the final set of short interviews so you can get a better understanding of different parts of the PMI, what’s happening in other chapters and of course, hear loud and clear the value and benefits gained from volunteering for your local chapter. We’ve also added a new member to our Ireland Chapter podcast crew as you’ll hear on this episode. Brantlee Underhill, Director of Chapters and Volunteers at PMI, a past guest on the show also, was my co-host for the day and she did an amazing job! Thank you Brantlee. Ok. Enough from me. Let’s get into the interviews. 1.Heather Ramsey, Manager of Academic Programs at PMI. Working with Colleges

Hi all, Welcome to EP15 of PMI Ireland Chapter Podcast. So last Month we held the PMI EMEA LIM & Congress in Dublin. Over 200 volunteers supported the events of LIM and Congress in Dublin and over 1000 attended.It was an amazing week by all accounts.

From attending sessions to catching up with leaders of other chapters, and even was able to interview the new CEO and Chair of the Board.Which by the way was last month’s episode and the most listened to of all our episodes since we began back in early 2018 (check it out for sure). During the 2 days, I was also able to connect with a number of attendees at the LIM which included Members of PMI at HQ in Philadelphia and Chapter leaders from across the globe. This episode (and next) will share these short interviews so you can get a better understanding of different parts of the PMI, what’s happening in other chapters and of course, hear loud and clear the value and benefits gain

Hi there,Welcome to the Ireland Chapter PMI Podcast. EP13 & April 2019. In this month’s show, I’m sharing out the full interview and Q&A with one of the PMI founders, Jim Snyder, from the National Conference back in February in Fota Ireland resort, Cork. This was a total sell out and I have to say, it was the best PM event I’ve been at in the decade since I’ve been going to these. Now I’m sure you’re thinking, I’m biased. But this has been echoed back to me during the event and since. It’s a longer than usual episode but very much worth a listen as you get some great insights from Jim on the 50 years of PMI as well as hearing from members of the audience on the day that put questions to Jim. A really special interview. I hope you enjoy it. We will be back next month with content from a recent Dublin Chapter event as well as some updates from the PMI EMEA LIM & Congress that are happening in May. If you’re considering going to the congress, please check out the page on out Chapter site at www.pmi-i

Hi there,Welcome to the Ireland Chapter PMI Podcast. EP12 & March 2019. In this month’s show you’re going to hear content we recorded at our national conference back in 28th February in Fota Ireland resort, Cork. This was a total sell out and I have to say, it was the best PM event I’ve been at in the decade since I’ve been going to these. Now I’m sure you’re thinking, I’m biased. But this has been echoed back to me during the event and since. It just seemed to work very well. You’d hope it was executed flawlessly as it’s a PM conference but still…and with Barry Murphy, from Après Match fame, the MC, there was certainly a lot of humour added to it. We recorded a number of interviews on the day with the presenters and some attendees. We also recorded the presentation that Dermott Bannon gave along with the Interview I did on stage with Jim Snyder. More on these in coming episodes. For today, I hope you enjoy the short interviews I did with both Dermot Bannon and Walter Bradley as well as 3 clips from some

Episode 10 – Ireland Chapter PMI – PodcastHi all,Very welcome to episode 10 of the Ireland Chapter of PMI Podcast. At the start of the year, we had hoped to do one per month starting in February and we have almost done that.The numbers of listeners, month on month, have been on the rise, with more subscribers every month which is great. We’ve interviewed some great PM professionals and experts during the year…including the founder of the PMI James Snyder, the current President & CEO Mark Langley, a number of our committee members, and others from across the globe that are part of PMI chapters. For me, it’s been an amazing opportunity and experience to get to talk PM with so many people….the common themes of career development, networking, trying out new things, and of course PDUs all come up….but giving back something to the profession is huge and very rewarding. I was lucky enough to present at the Region 8 chapter event in Belgrade in November sharing a HOW TO guide on podcasting for your chapter. If we
