Nominations for PM of the Year Award

PMIWDC is accepting nominations for the 2nd annual Project Manager of the Year award. 

This is your opportunity to recognize a peer, friend, or co-worker for their significant contribution to a project effort.  Don’t wait until the last minute!  

It frequently falls to a Project Manager to fill any gaps in tools, process, and supporting roles while meeting the daily challenges of his/her project effort.  Everyone knows a deserving individual that not only gets the job done but also excels at the task of delivering successful outcomes and being a true leader for their project team.   

Later this year, the Project Management Institute, Washington DC (PMIWDC) will recognize and reward the best of the best in the DC area at its Project Manager of the Year Awards ceremony.
