1. October 12 2010 Meeting WTC Lunda Center

2. September Meeting Survey 11 survey responses out of 23 meeting participants

3. September Meeting Comments-1 Very interesting and worthy cause! In my opinion, the only thing that could have made the presentation better was more of an association with Project management principals. Overall, excellent presentation and I loved the new facility! I thoroughly enjoyed the presentation... and there were several nuggets to take away. Dealing with other cultures, not judging right or wrong, just appreciating the difference. Stepping back and determining what the problem is and what can be done to resolve it. It's helpful to see real life situations and how to apply the concepts of PM. Life is never as "clean" as the textbook scenarios! The food was excellent but I would like to see a healthier meat/protein option. Your Comments are Appreciated and Addressed

4. September Meeting Comments-2 Maybe the most interesting presentation yet. The food was great. The combination of a clean, well lit, quiet location with no alcohol was a plus and I thought put PMI in a better light. The speaker and subject matter were very interesting. The focus on project management was somewhat low. Best meeting I have attended. Fascinating topic and speaker! Kudos to those that chose the new meeting center! We now have dessert at our meetings - yahoo! I really enjoyed the event. It was my first one Your Comments are Appreciated and Addressed
