Dear Chapter Members,

 

Below is a request from Pete Martinez, our Region 6 Mentor for PMI and
Lila Carden who is working on her doctorate in human Resource
Development at Texas A&M. Lila requests your assistance in completing a
survey. I'd encourage you to assist Lila in this study.

Mr. Martinez,

 

I am following up concerning the email you sent below for support in my
research project. To date, I have received support  from Houston, Clear
Lake, and Austin chapters.  I was also wondering if you could please
resend the email as a follow-up in hopes I can get a few more chapters
to participate?

 

Thanks for your continued assistance and I am most appreciative of the
support to date.

	Is supporting this effort and would like for you to share in
this study
	with your membership in however you
	can communicate this. It can be as easy as an email with a link
to the
	survey. It will take about 3 minutes
	to complete. Please pass on to your VP Education or Pro.
Development to
	work with Lila. All supporters
	with this effort will get a read out as described below. We need
to be
	doing more of this with our future

	Mr. Martinez,
	
	I am currently working on my doctorate in Human Resource
Development at
	Texas A&M University and I am interested in Project Management
as a
	research topic. 
	
	Projects are short term organizations and project managers are
charged
	with executing project initiatives. To that end, career paths
and career
	development activities support the retention and success of
project
	managers as well as project outcomes. My research project is
entitled
	"Pathways to Project Management Success" and I have developed a
3 minute
	survey to collect data. More specifically, the data is related
to career
	paths, job satisfaction, career commitment, and performance. I
would be
	most appreciative if Region 6 would participate in the study.
All the
	data would be anonymous and collected via a survey link.
Additionally, I
	will provide a summary report of the findings for your review
and
	consideration and will be willing to present those findings in a
Chapter
	meeting.
	
	PMI- Houston Chapter is supporting me in this research project.
More
	specifically, I have been communicating with Mr. Walter Viali
and Don
	Grosskreutz. 
	
	If you have any questions, please contact me at lcarden at tamu.edu
or call
	832- 671-1837. I look forward to your reply and I appreciate
your
	support in promoting the intersection of academics and practice
within
	the project management profession.
	
	Lila Carden, PMP
