Breakfast Roundtables

This interactive monthly event is an opportunity to discuss project management issues that affect our work and careers. Participants are encouraged to share their challenging experiences and benefit from the combined knowledge of attendees. We meet the third Thursday of the month. All are welcome! Our meeting schedule appears on the Home page and highlights of past Roundtables may be viewed on our Past Chapter Events page.

Breakfast Roundtable Mission Statement
Provide a convenient, informal venue for Project Management education. This education takes the form of sharing best practices and experiences, brainstorming ideas, and problem solving; it also encourages support and fosters relationships for the Project Management professional.

Contact our Breakfast Roundtable Program Managers if you'd like to offer more ideas, offer a location for an upcoming roundtable, or just want to discuss ideas about this valuable program.
