Speaker: Megan A. Speight, M.S. 

As seen in recent PMI Pulse of the Profession findings, 88 percent of surveyed project professionals reported that diverse project teams increase value. Meanwhile, organizations with culturally diverse leadership are associated with higher organizational performance.

As the global PMI community works together towards building a more equitable future, Megan will share insights on how to create a future of opportunity and inclusiveness for all – and what steps we can take today as individual changemakers, professionals, and community members.

The development of the PMI-Delaware Valley Chapter Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Initiative is a reflection of the Chapter’s commitment to advance a culture of diversity, seek equity, and strive for inclusion and belonging that enhances the Chapter and the members.  As Project Leaders, we can promote a greater sense of belonging and engagement for all members of our teams. Diversity and inclusion are integrated into all aspects of the best organizations. This session may assist you to advocate within your scope of influence for better decision making and team engagement. 

C-Level executives are fellow human beings with similar strengths and flaws as the rest of their people. Despite contrary opinions and sometimes contradictory corporate mandates, hyped up by office gossip and media outlets, what wise executives want most is for their companies to succeed in adding value to their ideal clients without burning out their highest assets: YOU! In a recent survey of C-Level Executives conducted by Anthony Ally, he discovered new unstated challenges and anxieties every manager & employee must become aware of, if they want to partner with executives, to help the company succeed without causing unnecessary attrition or burnout at all levels! As a Manager: Have you ever felt you don't have the power or authority to make needed changes for your company’s greater successes? Have you come to believe that executives are overloading your plate and outsourcing to cut costs because they don’t care about their employee’s lives? Do you believe you can do nothing but to go from stress to burnout when executives take on too many initiatives and then hand over all the work for you to 'get it done'? In this keynote address, Anthony Ally will reveal 3 steps managers at all levels can take to dramatically increase success at the highest levels in the organization!

Warning: This is not for the faint at heart or for those who want to stay under the radar, to survive until retirement! You will be challenged to transform your company while deepening your inner strength, creating out of the box solutions and becoming more courageous than you’ve ever been!
