8 January 2012
You would have seen the recent results of the PMI board Elections which brought Kate Popay, Yohan Abrahams and Syed Shakeel to the board as new Directors, and Andy Wright and Martin Robinson elected to their posts they were co-opted to in 2011.
There were no nominations for the President and Director of Communications roles. This was discussed at December board meeting and it was agreed that Duncan Chappell would be co-opted as President for year. As at the time of the December board meeting at least two members had expressed an interest in becoming Director of Communications it was decided to hold a further election for this post.
The change in the Bylaws were also ratified at the time of the election, which means that the Director of Commercal Events role can now be an elected post, Kris Sharma, the current incumbent was co-opted to this role in 2011. Hence there will be a request for nominations for this post at the same time as the Director of Communications
Any PMI UK Chapter members willing to be considered for the co-opted roles, please contact the Director of Administration, Andy Wright at andy.wright@pmi.org.uk
The board would like to offer their congratulations to Kate, Yohan and Syed for their new roles and their thanks to Martin and Andy for continuing in post.
Duncan Chappell, PMP
President
