PMI Connects professional project professionals across the globe: Events Projects are the way that organizations deliver their strategies. Many mature organizations have a project management office, or PMO, that aligns efforts and introduces economies of scale in the execution of projects across the business. PMO leaders can affect significant change in their organizations. PMI’s annual PMO Symposium is tailored to these senior-level decision makers. Advanced topics such as the 2015 Thought Leadership Series on talent management show how PMI can be a partner in supporting business strategy. By being present at all levels of an organization, PMI elevates project management to a strategic role.
