Well I had a speel all lined up until I just saw my influence drop from 71 to 65 in the last hour, despite numerous posts and being second most active on this site for some time. You really should look at that algorithm!
I think the site had an overall change. I saw the same surprise on influence. Maybe one day we’ll get a post from PM.com to Explain.
Also the inbox is much faster to open today! Saving Changes...
I use to be active at my local chapter. Now more active on-line and hope it help people.
Local chapter involvement was easier to claim for PDUs. Not that I need to claim any PDUs.
I also contribute in other none profits Saving Changes...
The influence scores are not meant to be static, but are more based on how you interact and contribute within the community and how often. You can find more information below:
To keep this thread on topic, if you have additional questions about influence you can e-mail [email protected].
Thank you!
that's intersting Marjorie, as the last week my content has been more "often" which is why it rose to 71, and then yesterday after what I would consider the same if not more content than usual, its dropped 6 points within 1 hour of checking my profile. Saving Changes...

As part of my work, I supervise young people during the accademic stages or as part of a training for social and professional integration in our structure or elsewhere. This aims to complete their university education which in my country is still very theoretical. Saving Changes...

I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to speak to groups of High School students about the profession and how project management can have an immeadiate impact in their everyday lives. I think a few of them listened. :)
Great idea! Good for you. Saving Changes...
