Corporate Partnerships Promote
PM for Social Good®
HPE Accelerates PMI Chapter Pro Bono Partnerships
It is well known that actively engaged sponsors are the top driver of project success. To
that end, having Anthony (Tony) Gayter, Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) Vice President
for Global Transition and Transformation Program Portfolio Management, serving as
executive sponsor of the PMI Educational Foundation’s Community Advancement through
Project Management Award, ensures the Award program’s success!
Tony launched the 2016 Award program at the PMI PMO Symposium 2015 in Phoenix,
Arizona as he wrapped up his executive keynote address. He encouraged PMO corporate
and government agency teams to engage with their communities and apply for
the Award.

management for social good® are announced at PMI Global Congress 2016 – North
America. The Corporation/Government Agency PMO Team is also recognized at the PMI
