Happy New Year PMINYC Community,


As 2024 draws to a close and we embark on 2025, I want to take a moment to say THANK YOU!


Over the past 24 months as your President, I have had the privilege of meeting so many of you who have inspired me with your passions for project management, giving back, lifelong learning and strengthening our community. It has been heartwarming. Your dedication as PMINYC members and volunteers has been the driving force behind our success over the last two years and for that, I am EXTREMELY grateful!


Together, we've accomplished so much in 2023-2024:

  • Received a citation from New York City Mayor Eric Adams on December 4, 2024, recognizing PMINYC’s service to all five boroughs
  • Completed a cultural transformation, fostering a strong sense of community, creating a multicultural and multigenerational Board, engaging members across all generations, strengthening governance, and enhancing cross-departmental collaboration
  • Introduced a Data Analytics Team, enabling data-driven decision-making
  • Achieved record membership growth of 30%, surpassing 4,000 members—the highest in our Chapter’s history
  • Reached a Chapter Satisfaction Level of 89%
  • Increased our volunteer base by 86%.
  • Earned nominations for Chapter of the Year in both 2023 and 2024


These milestones represent the hard work, dedication, and passion of our incredible community. Let’s take a moment to celebrate what we’ve achieved together!

I am deeply grateful to the PMINYC Board for their unwavering commitment and tireless efforts. This year, we bid farewell to three outstanding leaders: Yasmin Solomon, VP-Strategic Planning; Fred Stein, VP-Professional Development; and Nigel Thomas, VP-Membership. Their significant contributions have left an indelible mark on our Chapter.


As for me, I will be transitioning from the role of President and Board Chair to Immediate Past President, serving in an advisory capacity. It has been an absolute honor to lead this Chapter, and I look forward to continuing to support its growth and success.


A special thank you also goes to PMI President and CEO, Pierre Le Manh, our PMI Chapter Partners and the global PMI Community for their invaluable support and collaboration.


With that, I am delighted to welcome our new President and Board Chair, Edward Mandell, along with the incoming 2025 PMINYC Board Members. And welcome back to those Board Members continuing their service in 2025. Under their leadership, I am confident that our Chapter will continue to learn, grow and reach new heights. Together, we will build on the momentum of the extraordinary transformation achieved over the past two years and aim even higher in the years ahead.


Thank you for the opportunity to serve this incredible community. Wishing you and your loved ones a healthy and happy 2025 in which all your dreams come true!


With heartfelt gratitude,

Kim
