### **Presentation Overview:**

**Topic:** **Leveraging Power Apps to Enable Simple, Yet Effective Resource Management**
Resource Management can often be a daunting task. Whether it be trying to determine what resources are available to staff a project to what will be the resource demand for an organization over the next year.

There are many powerful solutions that often require a lot of cost and set up to configure to meet your particular needs. However, a simple Power App solution may provide an alternative to answer some of these questions with minimal set up on cost.

In this session we will explore how a simple Power App can be used to answer these Resource Management challenges and more with a fraction of the cost and ramp up of other solutions.

Key Learning Objectives:

* What are Power Apps?
* How can my organization leverage Power Apps to:
* Aide in assigning resources?
* Determine resource availability?
* Manage resources?
* Determine Resource Constraints?

**This meeting is $25.00 for Chapter Members and $35.00 for non-members.** Dinner is included.

**Lunch and** **Learn - Speaking the Language of Leadership: Structuring Your Message with the Pyramid Principle**
In this 45-minute lunch-and-learn, project managers will learn how to craft clear, compelling, and executive-ready messages using the Pyramid Principle by Barbara Minto. Designed specifically for those who regularly communicate with senior leaders, this session provides a practical framework to help you structure your thinking before you speak, enabling you to get to the point quickly, deliver insight with impact, and lead with logic.

Through real-world PM scenarios, we’ll explore how to:

* Frame your main message in a way that aligns with leadership’s decision-making mindset
* Sequence your message for clarity and persuasive impact
* Avoid common pitfalls when presenting project updates or strategic asks
* Translate complex project details into executive-level narratives

Whether you're preparing a status report, a business case, or a stakeholder update, this talk will equip you with tools to speak more strategically, be heard more clearly, and influence more effectively.

**Who should attend:**
Project managers and PMO leaders who regularly present to VPs, directors, and C-level stakeholders.

**Takeaway:**
A practical, repeatable approach to structuring communication that increases clarity, drives alignment, and earns trust at the top.
