She is also married to a wonderful man from Mexico. Her background alone made DEI not only deeply personal to her\, but also a lived truth throughout her entire life. Liz lived and worked in 4 different countries on 4 different continents\, which equipped her with a deep understanding of patterns of oppression in a variety of cultural contexts. She experienced and actively challenged\nracism and sexism during her time abroad and in the US. Liz’s time abroad was enriched by the expertise on race\, power\, and privilege that she obtained from both of her Master’s degrees. \nLiz has a proven track record of successfully implementing diversity and inclusion initiatives. Liz fostered an inclusive climate for a 500-member organization by launching a gender equality program and serving as a facilitator and a keynote speaker. Amid the spike in racially motivated violence from 2020 until the present in the US\, Liz served as a spokesperson at her organization’s racial injustice workshops. Additionally\, Liz served as a keynote speaker for 300-person audiences during Women’s History Month and Asian American and Pacific Islander History Month. By highlighting the structural nature of oppression\, she helped everyone to better understand how implicit bias is systematically reinforced in institutions and in society. Liz also set the stage for a more inclusive environment from a physical infrastructure standpoint. As the design lead for international spaces within her previous organization’s new\n$320 million headquarters building\, she enhanced international collaboration and strengthened 20 international partnerships. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation:\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThat’s Amore Restaurant\, 15201 Shady Grove Rd #1\, Rockville\, MD 20850  (Downstairs Banquet Entrance) \nSimulcast delivered via Zoom \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSCHEDULE OF EVENTS \nSocial Hour/Registration Opens @ 5:45pm (If you arrive any earlier\, feel free to start your night up at the restaurant bar on the 1st floor.

SUMMARY:Portfolio Management for Today’s Project Manager Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Portfolio management is the link between project objectives and strategic goals\, ultimately impacting the ability of an organization to achieve its vision.

Stories from Pharmaceutical Project Management”\nPDU: 1.0 – Business Acumen\nPresentation Download: PMIOctober22Presentation (Click to download)\n\nPresenter: Dr. Bradford Powell\, PhD\, PMP (Founder & CEO of Cernomics Solutions)\nPresenter Website: https://cernomics.com/Home_Page.html\n\nWe understand that our event date conflicts with the Yom Kippur High Holiday. Attempts were made to work with the scheduling so all observing members could still attend our session. We apologize that we were not successful with the re-scheduling. To accommodate everyone\, we will have the meeting recording posted on our YouTube Channel immediately after and will provide the Self-Claim Code for PDU processing to all. G’mar chatima tova! \n\nPresentation Abstract:\n\n No plan survives contact with reality; the best laid plans often go awry for mice\, men\, and project managers! While managing scope\, schedule\, cost\, inputs\, outputs\, risks\, and reports there is some point where a project shows signs of a need for more care. We have all faced the churn of stakeholder misalignments\, re-work of project adjustments\, or heartbreak of under-performance. Indeed\, the agile methodology arose as a solution to the limitations and losses of waterfall style\, command-and-control project management. However\, agile is not suited for all projects. Where it does apply\, it is not a guaranteed prevention and cure. All projects have fundamental challenges of which a Project Manager should be aware\, diagnose\, and treat.  \nIn this session of the PMI Montgomery County MD Chapter evening event series\, we will explore some root causes and solutions to common troubles that plague projects. The focus will be on communications\, assumptions\, and culture\, as told from consulting projects in the pharmaceuticals industry. The intent is to revisit concepts of business acumen to strengthen management tools in trying to answer the questions: Is my project healthy? Can a project be immunized against common ailments? \n\nPresenter Bio:  \nBradford Powell is the Founder and CEO of Cernomics Solutions providing project management support and technical quality consulting in the Bio-Pharmaceuticals and Life Sciences areas. Through more than 30 years in industry\, government and university\, Brad’s experience includes managing projects in the life sciences for basic research and development\, science program and product project management\, bio/pharmaceutical product manufacturing\, testing\, and quality compliance.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation:\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThat’s Amore Restaurant\, 15201 Shady Grove Rd #1\, Rockville\, MD 20850  (Downstairs Banquet Entrance) \nSimulcast delivered via Zoom \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSCHEDULE OF EVENTS \nSocial Hour/Registration Opens @ 5:30pm \nDinner Service Begins NLT 6:45pm \nZoom Room Opens @ 7:15pm \nChapter Business Remarks No Earlier Than @ 7:30pm \nDr. Powell’s Presentation w/ Q&A to follow – 7:40pm \n\nProgram concludes No Later Than @ 9:00pm\n\nNOTICE: The webinar will be recorded and available for viewing and PDU Self-Reporting.

Lee will capitalize on the knowledge gained on projects and the tools he used during a career that has spanned over five decades. He has a very insightful perspective since he was actually a practitioner when most of today’s PM tools were introduced. Lee will give his candid\, and often hilarious\, observations regarding the potential value add of today’s tools. Sometimes the truth hurts and some project managers may take exception to the statements made and the “facts” presented.*\nYou will leave this session feeling as though you have participated in a Sodium Pentothal driven assessment of the project management tools of the trade and\ntheir respective value add.*Statements or claims made during this presentation are those of the presenter and do not reflect or represent those of the Project Management Institute (PMI) or the Montgomery County PMI Chapter. \n\nPresenters Bio:  \nLee R.

He is regularly called upon to provide Keynote presentations on Leadership\, Communications and other Project Management topics. Before his years as VP\, Mr. Lambert was a project management evangelist at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and General Electric.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation:\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNormandie Farm Restaurant\,  Falls Rd\, Potomac MD \nSimulcast delivered via Zoom \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSCHEDULE OF EVENTS \nSocial Hour/Registration Opens @ 5:45pm \nDinner Service Begins No Earlier Than @ 6:30pm \nZoom Room Opens @ 7:15pm \nChapter Business Remarks No Earlier Than @ 7:30pm \nMr. Lambert’s Presentation w/ Q&A to follow – 7:40pm \n\nProgram concludes No Later Than @ 9:00pm\n\nNOTICE: The webinar will be recorded and available for viewing and PDU Self-Reporting.

These efforts are ineffectual\, often lacking any consistent standards or a cohesive long-term talent management strategy. For years\, we have seen in the value\, mission\, and vision statements of many organizations the words “people first.”\n\nYet when you have a conversation with the average employee\, he or she often does not feel as if he or she is first at all. Today\, Mr. Michael Taylor and Ms. Adrienne Somerville will offer the establishment of a new standard of ensuring employees\, at all levels\, know they represent the organization’s most valuable resource: its talent! In essence\, people are the bedrock of all organizations\, upon which talent management and all other company enablers rests. Mr. Taylor and Ms. Somerville will share the top talent management concepts\, and encourage\nparticipants like you to take the necessary action to spearhead your professional talent management initiative for your individual gain\, while promoting talent management\nthroughout your company for its organizational gain.Lastly\, Michael and Adrienne will also convey the need to not only understand talent\nmanagement but the data and its organizational value. They will ensure PMI MC Chapter\nparticipants understand the importance of collecting data about their workforce\, as it is the foundation regarding the knowledge\, skills and abilities of workforce members. Whether this is your first talent management event or you are a seasoned talent management professional\, you will find keys to help you design\, develop\, and deploy a rewarding and successful talent management career and/or program.\n\nPresenters Bio:  \nMs. Adrienne Somerville: As NAVAIR’s first Talent Management Program Manager\, Adrienne designed\, developed and deployed the integrated approach to workforce skills planning and management: increasing flexibility and agility to Department of Defense\, Navy and NAVAIR requirements; nationally synchronizing a variety of functional and organizational skill efforts; and providing the total workforce a clear\, consistent skill-based career roadmap and\ndevelopmental framework that identified skill gaps and better utilized desired skills to target training resources and meet program requirements.\n\nAdditionally\, Adrienne has over 13+ years expertise in Talent Management and Leadership Development that stems from her Navy career and continues now simultaneously with her own consulting groups\, Talent & Technical Solutions Corporation (TTSC) and Somerville Consulting Group LLC (SCG)\, where Adrienne serves as the CEO of both companies.\n\nMs. Somerville is an Amazon International Best Selling Author of Wingspan (her debuting talent management book)\, accolades include being named the 2021 Project Opportunity Pitch Competition winner\, Career Communications Women of Color 2020 President’s Award winner and the Career Communications Women of Color 2011 Managerial Award winner.\n\nMr. Michael Taylor:\nMichael currently cultivates a high performing workforce by designing and delivering relevant and innovative development programs that engage individuals and teams at all levels of the organization. Michael has more than 20 years of professional experience in\, change management\, mentorship\, organizational development\, and strategic planning working in the federal government sector.
