In the Spotlight: Collaborative Insights with Black Enterprise Magazine
In a recent article by Black Enterprise Magazine, Founder, Asya Watkins, shared all that she has accomplished over the years creating the Women of Project Management community. The feature highlights Asya’s incredible journey in project management and how she got her start.
Asya created the Women of Project Management community out of the pure need for representation in this industry. In her interview with Black Enterprise Magazine, she says, “It’s not a place I would have probably chosen initially because I would not have felt like I belonged there. But when I fell into it, what I found was that I love the work.” I think I can speak for everyone inside the Women of Project Management membership in saying, we are so glad she took the leap of faith to create this community.
Her feature in Black Enterprise Magazine puts a spotlight on how she has made innovative and trailblazing contributions to women of color all over the world.

Black Enterprise is a multimedia platform that highlights Black American professionals, entrepreneurs, and business owners. Over the past 50 years, Black Enterprise has been a trusted source for all things finance, news, and career development within the Black American community. The inevitable collaboration between Asya and Black Enterprise is a dynamic union with the power to make a significant impact on the culture.
The magazine references how the powerhouse partnership between Women of Project Management and Project Management Institute’s (PMI) strategic alignment provides even more resources and access to Black women and women of color in the project management industry.
Asya shared her overall experience in project management and what she has planned for the Women of Project Management community. This includes the many masterclasses and resources inside of the Women of Project Management membership as well as the upcoming conference in Atlanta, GA August 24-26.
