Speaking Engagement Request
Members of the PMI Board of Directors and Executive Leadership team regularly speak at a wide range of in-person and virtual events, including PMI chapter events, industry conferences, and other leading forums.
Our speakers present thought leadership and perspective on a wide range of topics, including the future of work, talent development, and new ways of working.
We are pleased to consider requests for speaking engagements at your events whether virtual or at an in-person setting, as well as podcasts, video interviews, and other content platforms.
Speaking Engagement Request FAQ's
