This is the first time that I have attended PMSAC. There were a couple of very engaging and informative sessions. The discussions on managing innovation, the challenges associated with it and how to solve the pain points were particularly insightful.

We have an opportunity here to interact with leaders who are successful in their own fields. The data presented at some of the sessions indicate that the demand for project management professionals will continue to grow. This will encourage people to take up project management jobs seriously.

I have been a PMI member for the past 4 years. This is my second annual conference. I have found the sessions at the PMSAC23 very relevant to the current context such as connecting Generative AI to project management.

I have been impressed by the quality of the sessions. One of the main reasons for attending the conference has been to find motivation. Sometimes, we find ourselves stuck doing the same things repeatedly. This conference has provided me with a refreshing experience.

The theme of the conference revolves around innovation, and each speaker has brought out a unique perspective. A session that has stood out the most for me is Sandeep Kochhar’s “Art of Storytelling.” I have also found Srimathi Shivashankar session inspiring. Kudos to the volunteers who have put in tremendous effort in pulling the conference together so well.

The conference has provided us with valuable insights. We would not learn such knowledge by staying in our own office cubicle. I would say PMSAC23 has been one of the best conferences. I’d like to see it take place at least every 6 months so that we can get more out of it.

I have learned a lot about bringing innovation to project management from various industry leaders, which has given me new perspectives. It has been a wonderful platform for networking. I am looking forward to next year’s conference.
