Mission

Teach and facilitate Networking among PMINJ members to support their personal and professional growth, engage career coaches and experts to provide guidance in navigating the job-search process, and promote exposure to career and business opportunities.

Scope

The PMINJ Career Networking Local Community of Interest (CNL) was established to facilitate business and career networking among PMINJ members. The CNL's goals are to provide additional networking opportunities to PMINJ members in the form of networking events, educational forums, and professional development opportunities. A structured networking event is hosted each month, with elements of speakers, panel discussions, job announcements, networking sessions and interactive workshops.

The CNL provides these services for interested PMINJ Project Managers:

  • Career Networking session prior to monthly Chapter meetings
  • Career Networking email list enabling notices and opportunities to be sent to CNL members
  • Reference information about other networking resources and previous speaker sessions

Monthly Sessions

Career Networking Sessions are held before monthly PMINJ Chapter meetings, at the Main Meeting location. Registration begins at 5:15pm; the Networking event opens at 5:30pm and closes at 6:30pm, giving members time to enjoy dinner before the main meeting. No separate pre-registration is needed - just be sure to register for the chapter meeting, arrive a bit earlier, and join us.

This season, CNL is planning to host speaker presentations in September, November, February, April and May, and facilitated networking sessions in October, January, March and June.

Handouts from the meetings (when available) can be downloaded from the PMINJ chapter website. Go to Events > Archive, and find the meeting of interest to download the handouts.

Upcoming Session

2/19/2019 - Smart Moves - Terrence Seamon, Career Coach and Leadership Development Consultant

Moving your career ahead depends on a few critical things. Terry Seamon calls them "Smart Moves." In this workshop, we will explore several vital moves, including:

  • Do you know what it means to be "in Sales & Marketing?"
  • Do you know what activities will bring you the best return on your time and effort?

Terrence "Terry" Seamon, a seasoned career transition consultant with The Ayers Group, and a leadership development consultant with Facilitation Solutions, describes what the most proactive job seekers and career changers do day-in and day-out, and how to increase your effectiveness through focused time management. Learn the skills of highly effective career transitioners and how you can achieve your goals and address obstacles and challenges more effectively. Start making "smart moves" and achieve more success in your professional and personal life!

Terry coaches and trains his clients on many skills especially managing change, setting goals, managing conflict, building teams, and leading others. One of his specialties is learning and applying the keys to success, based on the science of success research that has emerged in the past 25 years. He holds a Masters degree in Education from Rutgers University, as well as a BA in Human Communication from Rutgers. The author of three books (To Your Success, Lead the Way, and Change for the Better), Terry can be found on LinkedIn and Facebook

Remember to bring your business cards!
