“The international project management day is intended to encourage project based organizations worldwide or organizations who utilize project management methodologies to schedule some type of recognition event within their organizations or coordinated locally with others to truly demonstrate appreciation for the achievements of project managers and their teams.”
How many of you knew that? I didn’t, until yesterday. My weekly toastmasters meet was also yesterday and I had signed up as the TableTopics Master. So, I took that opportunity to remind my fellow members about this auspicious day. I invited speakers to do an impromptu speech about their projects, about project management, about motivation. That’s how I honored this day, by recognizing the efforts and hard work of the Project Managers and the teams who deserve a lot more than that.
So for next time, mark your calendars. Celebrate this day. Make it an event. Make them feel special.

I will be marking the date in my calendar next time an on-line event seems to be the best way of bring people together for international project management day.
