The 2-Hour Workshop Blueprint: Design Fast. Deliver Strong. Without the Stress.

Power Skills

OVERVIEW

PMI Queensland is pleased to present a brand-new event series for 2025 - the PMI Queensland Book Club, an opportunity for project professionals to develop their non-technical skills through a facilitated group discussion of various personal development texts. Some tangible benefits:

  1. Opportunities for continuous learning through a curated list of personal development books focused on uplifting “soft-skills” and non-technical capabilities required for project management success.
  2. A shared learning experience in which members gain collective insights and share their experiences, delivered by a professional facilitator.
  3. Meaningful connections with like-minded project professionals with an interest in personal growth and developing a community.
