Chapter News & Updates: May 2026
Insights & Impact
As we move into May, our regional economy continues to accelerate, demanding more than just technical execution from project leaders; it demands adaptability and strategic vision. This month, we celebrate the evolving impact of PMOs, look back at 55 years of PMI history, and look forward to our flagship Professional Development Days.
Below, you’ll find insights from our Chapter President, details on our upcoming June meeting at Epic, and a final call for Super Early Bird pricing.
From the President’s Blog: Project Management in South Central Wisconsin - A Profession in Motion
Project management in our region is evolving alongside a dynamic, innovation-driven economy. Across healthcare, biotech, manufacturing, and finance, the need for effective leadership is surging. Today, we are expected to do more than deliver results; we must lead through complexity and align work with business outcomes in an AI-driven landscape.
PMI Madison plays a vital role in this shift by fostering emerging skills and building community connections. Project management is no longer just a discipline; it’s the core capability shaping how our organizations succeed.
