October 2023 Newsletter

Celebrating 20 Years of Cybersecurity Awareness Month

Welcome to the latest edition of the PMINYC newsletter! In today's fast-paced digital world, staying ahead is essential. This month, we focus on cybersecurity, a crucial aspect of safeguarding our projects. As we gear up for Cybersecurity Awareness Month in October, remember that there are numerous ways to protect your data. Even basic cybersecurity practices can make a significant difference, such as using strong passwords, turning on multi-factor authentication and updating software.

Additionally, the integration of Artificial Intelligence is revolutionizing how we approach project management. AI technologies are enhancing efficiency, predictive analysis and decision-making processes. Plan ahead now to learn from an industry leader about the latest AI trends in Design at our in-person chapter meeting on Wednesday, November 15th!

Wishing you a month filled with discovery, growth and unparalleled professional development.

UPCOMING EVENTS

The 2023 Election Cycle is now open!

PMI HQ sent an email to all PMINYC Chapter members on Sunday, October 15th, around 1pm with the subject "PMI NYC Nominations And Election Committee" from the email address: noreply@eballot.com

That email contained instructions on how to cast your ballot for the open PMINYC Board positions for 2024 and provided the link for voting and your personalized password.

If you did not receive the 10/15 communication, please send an email to 2023elections@pminyc.org and provide:
Your PMI ID
The email where you looked for the communications
The email(s) you didn’t receive

Upon clicking the election link, one of our active members received a notice that “there are no active ballots”. If you encountered this message as well, please also send an email to 2023elections@pminyc.org and provide your PMI ID so we can rectify the situation

Finally, kindly check your junk and/or spam folder in case the PMI HQ email ended up there

Your PMI member number will be your ID to vote. Voting will be open until Saturday, 10/28.
