190605 -
190606 - Ahmet asked for ideas on the event program theme that can be
190607 - coordinated with the Monthly Meeting Programs. The following three
190608 - ideas were considered:
190609 -
190610 - 1. Communications [submitted to the Board at ref SDS 1 line 296]
190611 -
190612 - 2. Transition from classical project management to modern project
190613 - management.
190614 -
190615 - 3. How automation will impact project management in the 21st
190616 - century.
190617 -

190620 - ..
190621 - Discussion showed communications was viewed as too narrow for a
190622 - year long theme, because it deals with only a single section of the
190623 - PMBOK. Linda explained that a theme of "successful project management"
190624 - is a positive statement of the tension between internal and external
190625 - management, and the role of authority.
190626 -
190627 - [See follow up from Asilomar results showing communication theme
190628 - was too broad for a single event. ref SDS 13 0550]

190631 - yesterday, ref SDS 7 0000.
