Synopsis:
“Open Forum on Project Management Best Practices”
As a change to our usual format, this luncheon will be interactive: you help drive the content. The “Open Forum” will allow an exchange of ideas and information where one can share, get information on specific issues and interact with other members. Ku’uipo will facilitate discussions so that the information provided will be valuable and useful. She may stimulate discussions by posing questions or select members to
• Share their “Best Practices” on specific processes, tools, techniques, etc. or
• Ask the questions on a subject matter that they would like to know about.

This will be an opportunity to ask questions about or share your own solutions regarding Methodologies, Processes, Tools & Techniques, and Templates.
