My Term as Chair ended yesterday, 12/31/22, and I will move to the role of past Chair for the next year and will still be on the board in that capacity. It has been a difficult tenure as president and different from what I thought I would be doing when I ran for office. We navigated the pandemic well and have emerged as a more vital organization. I am proud of the team that worked hard to maintain the chapter during the pandemic and all we accomplished.
The board has been jam-packed with activity in December, and we attended the PMI Global Summit as a team with many volunteers and chapter members. We have five new board members, so we have spent a lot of time training and working on a strategy for next year. We have a fully staffed board for the first time in two years, and I am excited to see what this team can do. I recognize our departing board members, Cory Smith, and Chris Gentry, for their contributions to the chapter over the last few years. Stephanie Hanko will take over the chair position for 2023, and I look forward to her leadership. Also joining the board are newly elected board members Milan Dordevic, Derick Brownell, Cynthia Ford, Danielle Lee, Jen Lang, and Pitch Balasubramanian.
As always, we are looking for new volunteers. We welcome you if you have a passion for project management and want to make a difference in the profession and your community. If you are interested, you can apply here: https://pmiphx.org/volunteer-opportunities. Stay tuned for more information from the chapter on new initiatives and upcoming events in 2023. I hope to see you at an event in the new year.
