My vision

After receiving my PMP certification, I travelled to Japan on business. I was part of a team that included many Project Managers and senior Executives. We were pitching a concept that required a complex implementation. 

 
In a high rise skyscraper in Tokyo we were led into a board room and sat down. The Japanese Executives entered next. They welcomed us and sat down. They introduced themselves and their hopes for the project. When it was my turn I spoke my name, my title and my involvement in the project.
 
The Lead Project Manager spoke last, based on where he had sat down. After saying his name and title, he spoke about his vision for the project. His speech reflected back many of the phrases mentioned by the Japanese Executives. He weaved their thoughts, phrases and aspirations into his own. Referring to the stakeholders by name, he listed similarities between this project and their public successes. He drew parallels between Japan being the land of the rising sun and how this project would also rise, shining glory and good fortune on their company. 
 
It was from that moment on that I realized the true potential of Project Management. I understood that it should not be buried within the Contract Cost Breakdown. Instead, Project Management can become a company’s strategic differentiator. It can push partnerships to new heights. The origami bird logo was created as a constant reminder of the driver behind my mission. It signifies the Japanese origins, the reorganisation of available resources into something new and the aim for Project Management to soar to new heights.
