Two events not to miss

Two events in Melbourne not to be missed!

1: IPMD Melbourne:

First on the 14th November – Melbourne’s first ever International Project Management Day breakfast.

To preview Dr Amantha Imber, the breakfast keynote speaker’s thoughts on innovation and creativity see: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfUNp9LABhU.  Want more?  Download the event PDF and book your breakfast from: http://www.mosaicprojects.com.au/ftp/IPMD_14th%20Nov_Melbourne%20Event.pdf

Unfortunately I cannot make the breakfast – we are running our last PMP and CAPM courses for the year that week (starting 11th November) and as a scheduler, know being in two places at the same time is difficult. For more on the training see: http://www.mosaicprojects.com.au/Training-Schedule.html

2: Making Sense of Schedule Risk Analysis – Free Event

Second, on the 20 November, international risk management expert, Tony Welsh, President of Barbecana Inc and developer of the Full Monte risk analysis tool is the speaker at the AIPM Project Controls SIG (PC-SIG) meeting to be held at The Water Rat Hotel, 256 Moray Street, South Melbourne: http://www.thewaterrathotel.com.au/, on Wednesday 20th November (start 5.30pm). There is no catering for the forum but interested participants are invited to pre- and post-forum drinks at the bar (after all it is a pub!!).

This is a free event open to anyone with an interest in project controls, however, to make sure there’s adequate seating we are asking you to register with AIPM at http://www.aipm.com.au/iMIS/Events/Event_Display.aspx?EventKey=VI131120&zbrandid=2139&zidType=CH&zid=5168408&zsubscriberId=505907810&zbdom=http://aipm.informz.net (the event is free). But as long as you don’t mind the risk of standing, pre-registration is not essential. And I definitely will be attending this event.

International Project Management Day

We are happy to support a Melbourne initiative to mark IPMD 2013. IPMD is a world-wide initiative to promote project management and should be supported by all project managers, all project management businesses and all project management associations!

A group of our friends and colleagues have created a great ‘breakfast morning’ for the Melbourne PM community with Dr Amantha Imber, founder of Inventium, as the keynote speaker. If you are interested here’s a short clip of Amantha in action.

This whole event is a celebration of PM – and any profits will be donated to the Fred Hollows Foundation. To be part of the action download the PDF event flyer and book!
