Board Message - August 2026
Dear NCPMI Chapter Members,
Great leadership isn't defined by having all the answers—it's defined by the willingness to become more. More self-aware. More intentional. More adaptable.
People remember how leaders make them feel, the confidence they inspire, and the consistency they demonstrate. When our words, actions, and values align, we build trust that motivates others to follow, contribute, and excel.
At the upcoming 2026 NCPMI Annual Conference, we will come together to explore our transformative theme: The Power of M.O.R.E. : Manage Perceptions. Own Success. Relentlessly Reassess. Expand Perspective. This exciting professional development event promises insightful sessions, engaging speakers, and unparalleled opportunities for project management professionals and those aspiring to be project managers.
Conference Highlights
- Top-notch speakers sharing their expertise on innovation, growth, and transformation.
- Access to all sessions, including recordings of those you might miss during the live conference.
- And new for this year – THE WALL! Scan, answer a M.O.R.E. prompt, and see your words on the big screen — every response is also an entry in the drawing.
We look forward to experiencing the energy and enthusiasm of this remarkable PM community as we shape the future together. Whether you're looking to strengthen your leadership, expand your network, or gain practical strategies you can apply immediately, this conference is designed to help you grow. Register today and join us in making this conference unforgettable!
Warm regards,
Lalethia L. Bethea
VP of Professional Development

Grow Your Skills
It is particularly important for Project Managers to maintain and improve their project management knowledge and skills to stay competitive in the market. PMP certification is a critical component. As, during the resent years, project management discipline took a step toward more flexible and dynamic project management methodologies, in addition to the traditional waterfall approach, several new emerging methodologies became in high demand. Thus, training and credentialing in these methodologies became highly sough after among Project Management professionals. It is especially relevant in today's economic climate.
