Each month, PMI Memphis selects a book that challenges our thinking and sparks meaningful conversation. Our Book Club sessions are held online via Zoom — occasionally in person — and follow a simple 90-minute format of guided discussion, real-world application, and community. No formal presentation, no pressure. Whether you read the full book, skim a few chapters, or simply show up to learn from the conversation, all levels of participation are welcome. Open to PMI members and non-members alike, our Book Club brings together project managers, Agile practitioners, aspiring PMs, and professionals from healthcare, construction, tech, government, and more. It is a relaxed space to gain fresh perspectives, expand your network, and earn 1 PDU per session. Come with questions, come with stories, or just come ready to listen. All are welcome.
This event session will explore how leaders can move beyond traditional delegation to create clarity, accountability, and stronger engagement within their teams.
