ENGAGING MEMBERS OF THE TECH COMMUNITY
Project, Program, and Product Management Special Interest Group (PMSIG)
UPCOMING EVENT
What is PMSIG?
The PM Special Interest Group is devoted to the discussion of Project, Program, or Product Management issues of all kinds. Until we can meet in person, a speaker is chosen to do a webinar each even-numbered month to share a novel or engaging idea or experience covering this simple charter: “How do we manage who does what by when?” (with a splash of some Hows and Whys for good measure). Discussion topics will include classic planning and execution topics as estimation, tooling, and reporting, but also how the dynamics of coordination, communication, and culture influence the role of a PM.
PMSIG is hosted by Jon Bach, a Senior Program Manager at eBay, leading various quality-related efforts in its Marketing Technologies team of 150 people. He has more than two decades of software quality project experience as a tester, test manager, test consultant, and test director, which he now uses to help eBay make sure its marketing efforts are thoughtful and relevant. He has an energetic and practical style, and he is known to many eBay customers as “Jon the Bug Hunter.”

Networking
You'll be in the room with your kind - people who care about the things you care about and will appreciate the stories you have to tell. You meet other professionals who can help you sharpen your skills or learn from your experience. The PMSIG is a relaxed, thoughtful space to ask questions, get answers, and share knowledge. We hope you'll join us!
Learning
We attract the best minds in the PM disciplines from around the nation - many of whom are local to the Pacific Northwest to share with us through our events. Right now we are fully online but once it's safe to meet in person again we'll do that. We are looking forward to building this community together.
