"Leading Through Change: Navigating PMI's New Membership Model"
Change is rarely about processes alone. Successful change requires leaders to guide people through uncertainty, help them understand the "why," and create the conditions for adoption and long-term success. In this interactive session, participants will explore how change management principles can support the successful transition to PMI's New Membership Model (NMM). We will examine the people, governance, volunteer, and membership impacts of the NMM and discuss practical approaches for leading through change at the chapter level.
Using real-world examples, the Change Curve, and facilitated discussion, attendees will learn how to communicate change effectively, address resistance, engage stakeholders, and build organizational readiness. Special emphasis will be placed on the critical role chapter leaders play in moving beyond implementation toward sustained adoption and member value. Participants will leave with actionable leadership strategies, practical tools, and a deeper understanding of how to help their chapters navigate change with confidence, alignment, and resilience.
