In the past, we’ve discussed the possibility of a Non-profit Outreach program within the chapter. We are happy to announce that this year we have the opportunity to make that happen.  The goal of this program is to utilize the talents of chapter members to assist non-profit organizations in the successful completion of their projects, programs and initiatives.  This accomplishes two things: for the volunteer it is an opportunity to “give back” to the community and to earn volunteer PDU’s and for the non-profit, it provides professional talent to assist their employees and other volunteers to complete initiatives key to their success – talent they would not normally have in-house.

During the April 19th dinner meeting, guest speaker Forrest Lamb shared insights on the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® instrument. The MBTI ® is a personality assessment widely used by most Fortune 100 companies as tool for team building, conflict management, performance improvement and professional development. Attendees explored the various personality types and how to use personality differences as strengths. Click here to view Forrest Lamb's presentation.

Many thanks to Forrest Lamb and our attendees for a successful evening.

The PMI Greater New Orleans chapter would like to thank the brave men and women for serving our country and protecting our freedoms.

We are proud to announce our recent involvement with PMI's Military Outreach Initiative. We are gaining momentum quickly and will be sharing our progress in the upcoming member meetings.  We have appointed a Military Liaison to the Board and received commitments from two Military Mentor volunteers. We would like to add at least two more mentor volunteers. If you are interested in getting involved with the Military Outreach Initiative, please contact This email address is being protected from spambots.

The PMI Greater New Orleans Chapter was established in 1990. Since then, it has grown to over 350 members throughout the metro area with the guiding vision that Greater New Orleans is the project management center of excellence that drives economic prosperity. Chapter members include engineers, planners, database managers, software developers, and consultants in the banking, oil and gas, chemical production, government agencies, communication, and other industries.

We provide our members the full benefits of the PMI organization with a local network.  Membership means you will be recognized as someone who is serious about their professional and personal development; enthusiastic about good practices in project management; and dedicated to practicing your profession in an ethical manner.

If you are a professional project manager, thinking about becoming one, or simply interested in the field of project management, we can help. Membership and participation in chapter events offers you the opportunity to network with other professionals, obtain outstanding training at little or no cost, and share experiences and knowledge with other professionals.

We encourage you to search out website, attend a dinner meeting, and contact our board for more information about PMI and the GNO Chapter.
