You should get on it. How about I start your plan by suggesting you contribute more content to the community.

Rami -

For me, it's more of the same:

1. Actively contributing here with blogs and discussion thread responses. I might do another webinar if a compelling topic presents itself.

2. Continuing as a volunteer community moderator for PMI's LinkedIn discussion group

3. Blogging weekly

4. Presenting at conference - at least at ProjectWorld Toronto and hopefully at GC 2020 in Seattle

5. Virtually and in-person mentoring of a number of practitioners who have contacted me

6. After being part of Review Team 1 for the new PMBOK Guide, I may also review the Exposure Draft once it is released later on this month

7. Continuing to review & provide feedback on DA-specific content

That's great, you always give back to the profession a lot and I respect that about you. Good Luck with all those volunteer activities.

Maybe you and I should think of doing a joint webinar. Let's think it through in the near future and discuss it over Skype with a glass of Scotch.

Hello Rami: Thank you for all that you are doing to give back to your PM community. It has been so good to see the efforts of so many who are giving back in 2020. These are some of the things I am doing:
1. Keep contributing here on this website in response to discussions, blogs, polls, etc.
2. Share a monthly blog on this site.
3. Continue to volunteer as part of the PMI Volunteer Standards team.
4. Yesterday I gave my first PMI global webinar! I hope to do at least one more this year.

Hi Rami,

Very remarkable list. Allow me to crack a joke and say that you must sleep less than a stoplight!

Answering to your question, I will keep on volunteering at PMI NL Chapter. I also requested to volunteer in the translation to Spanish of PMBoK 7th edition but unfortunately was not selected.

On the unrelated PM side, I will start this year to become a blood and/or plasma donor.

Thank you, if it makes it any better, I just added two more to the list that for some reason I forgot to include in my original comment.

Funny enough, yes, I don't like sleeping a lot (6 hours at most) but also this is one of the very few advantages of being single, I own my time so at the moment, I am married to the profession. LinkedIn also keeps me so busy, it's a very powerful platform.

Your contributions to the community are much appreciated and that's decent of you to become a blood donor, all respect and best wishes to you.
