Dear community members,
As you may know, the primary purpose of PMI Morocco Chapter (PMI MC), is to provide value to its members and stakeholders in our country. This value can be provided in many ways and the Project Management Institute (PMI) has identified membership retention and growth as fundamental issues facing most chapters. PMI also recommends several sources to design a strategic plan with the chapter objectives, and the gaps that need to be addressed.
Our engagement as Board members is making sure that the chapter members’ needs are being met while ensuring the PMI Strategic focus is being also met and to plan effectively, a critical consideration is the knowledge of the current state of our Chapter and the desired future state within the next two years.
That’s why, we decided as a Board, that our planning process will be mainly guided by a needs analysis and the PMI’s Core Service review, so your inputs and answers, to this needs assessment survey, will allow us to identify the services that will best meet the needs of the chapter membership in alignment with the PMI’s Strategic plan.
The needs assessment survey is structured including two main sections:
- MEMBER’S BACKGROUND AND MEMBERSHIP
- STRATEGIC PLANNING
The first section about your background and membership will inform our strategic plan and help us ensure that PMI Morocco Chapter remains responsive to members’ evolving needs. Your inputs are important for several reasons such as:
- Understanding your needs and preferences which will help us tailor our services and programs to better meet your specific needs.
- Identifying potential gaps in services by assessing the demographics of your membership. We can identify any gaps in our current services or programs.
- Improving communication and engagement by understanding our members’ backgrounds which can help us tailor our strategy and action plan to resonate with your specific interests and needs.
- Building stronger relationships as we have a genuine interest in getting to know you as individuals. This can foster stronger relationships and trust, which can lead to greater loyalty and support to the PMI MC.
The primary purpose of our chapter -PMI MC- is to provide value to its members and stakeholders. The second section about strategic planning includes:
- Mission, Vision and Values of PMI Morocco Chapter
- Value of membership and volunteering
- Learning events and topics
- Communication
