See What You
Missed Last Year…
Our last conference proved what’s possible when Black women in project management lead boldly, take up space, and claim the recognition they’ve earned. It was a reminder that when we gather, we don’t just change our careers — we shift entire industries.
From breakthrough leadership moments to genuine sisterhood and unstoppable growth, every room was filled with alignment, strategy, and power.
Now it’s your turn. Watch the recap — and ask yourself: What would it mean for your career, your confidence, and your company if you were in the room in 2026?
The Women Of Project Management® Conference isn’t just another event — it’s the most impactful career investment for Black women—and the women of color and allies who stand with us—to lead, rise, and redefine what’s possible.
