Events! Trip Report, ProjectWorld Anaheim
November 13-16, 2007; Stacy Goff


asapm helped promote the ProjectWorld & the World Congress of Business Analysts sessions again this year, As a result of our participation, members received an admission discount. And, we spoke in several sessions to promote our efforts in advancing the practice of Project Management.

This ProjectWorld event was, I think, the best one yet. The keynote speakers were relevant, articulate and interesting, the individual Track sessions were well-coordinated and useful, and the entire conference was well-managed. The venue, the Disneyland Hotel in Anaheim, was excellent.

In addition to my presentation (see below), Ed Fern also presented his popular Six Steps to the Future theme (still one of the most-popular asapm downloads). He also filled in as Track Chair for "The People Side". As a result of our combined efforts, asapm received great exposure at this event.

I understand the Europe ProjectWorld in Barcelona, Spain, was also very good; we helped promote that one as well, and IPMA Chair Adesh Jain offered one of the keynotes.

ProjectWorld and the World Congress of Business Analysts happens several times each year, with Regional events and a major event: if there is one near you in 2008, you should plan on attending!

StacyGoff Presentation
Our presentation was in the Core Competencies track (an increasingly popular subject today). Tracking Project Performance to Maximize Business Value exposed attendees to the role of PM Competence, and specifically the National Competence Baseline, in making sure projects achieve their intended business value.

A condensed version of the presentation is available here on the asapm website, in two formats:

If you download the PowerPoint slides, also download the Periodic Table of the Project Management Competence Elements, a visual used for reference during the presentation.

Participants also received a link to related Goff articles, available on the asapm website.

This ProjectWorld session was very well-received by the attendees, with great interaction, and we hope you enjoy this condensed version too!
