PMI Northeast Wisconsin Chapter

SNAPSHOTS to SUCCESS

Our life is made up of snapshots, significant moments which give us meaning. We’re all moving at the speed of life and as Project Managers, you may feel stressed. To be more productive and achieve better results the key is to examine your expectations and shift your perspective or reframe. Join us for our October chapter meeting as we explore these concepts with guest speaker, Lori Klinka.

Lori creates a fun and inspiring learning experience to demonstrate her Focus-Capture-Frame approach to feel more energized and productive. Drawing on her twenty years as a professional actress, Lori portrays a humorous and insightful cast of characters, to help you see how the power of perspective, adjusting your expectations and living in the moment can improve your personal and professional life. 

As a result of this program you will:

• Increase your productivity at work
• Feel less stress and more energized throughout your day 
• Shift to a more positive perspective
