A Decade of Progress

In 2009, Project Management Institute (PMI) Northern Nevada was founded with the help and support of PMI-SVC (Sacramento) and our local volunteers. Founded with the vision of providing advanced knowledge and skills of project management practitioners in the Reno Sparks area. This year we are celebrating 10 years of progress towards that vision, and we would like to invite you to be part of this celebration.

Our organization’s ability to continue to promote PMI standards to the Project Management community through professional development, networking, and opportunities to serve, is due in large part, to the generous support of sponsors and donors who believe in our mission for increased business growth and success through the application of proven project management principles

This event is not to be missed. Dine, mingle, and hear the secrets of our success over a lovely dinner, featuring fond reminiscences and motivational conversations

International Project Management

Have you ever wondered what it was like to work in international business, manage a team comprised of international resources, or lead a project that was completely outside the country?

There are 197 countries in the world, each with their own distinct culture (language, customs, currency, etc.), and while many of us have never ventured outside our borders Lorenz Ledesma has had the fortune to visit 20 countries to date (and lead projects in 12 of those countries). Managing an international team &/or project presents a set of unique experiences, as well as challenges.

Please join us on May 28 to hear from Lorenz Ledesma, to hear all about managing teams and projects outside of our borders.
