💫 An incredible day of learning, networking, and professional growth was had at our signature Professional Development event on Oct 24 💫 The day has been a testament to the strength of our project management community, and we’ve had the opportunity to gain insights, share experiences, and expand our knowledge across a wide range of topics that are crucial in our ever-evolving profession.

- Jill Heinerth, FRCGS D. Lit., h.c. emphasized the importance of maintaining an explorer's mindset in our work, urging us to approach every project with curiosity, openness, and a readiness to adapt to new possibilities. This mindset not only fosters innovation but also helps us navigate the unknown with greater confidence and resilience.

- Mark Mullaly provided us with practical tools for managing uncertainty, a constant challenge in project management. His strategies for embracing unpredictability and turning it into an opportunity for strategic decision-making were particularly timely and insightful, offering us new ways to approach risk and ambiguity in our projects.
