### FAQ

#### Is a PMP certification worth it?

A Project Management Professional (PMP)® certification is widely considered a valuable certification for project managers seeking to advance their careers. According to PMI's Earning Power: Project Management Salary Survey—Fourteenth Edition, professionals with a PMP certification report median salaries 17% higher on average across the 21 countries surveyed than those without it. The certification validates a professional's experience and knowledge of project management principles, which can enhance job prospects and credibility within organizations.

#### What are the best certifications for project managers?

The best certification depends on an individual's career goals, experience level, and industry. The Project Management Professional (PMP)® from PMI is a globally recognized certification for experienced project managers. For those newer to the field, PMI's Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM)® is a common starting point. Other notable certifications include those focused on agile methodologies, such as the PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP)®, and program management certifications like the Program Management Professional (PgMP)®. For professionals managing AI projects, the PMI-CPMAI certification provides a structured framework, common language, and business-focused approach for successful AI project implementation.

#### How does PMI support career growth for professionals?

PMI supports career growth by providing globally recognized certifications, a framework of standards, and extensive opportunities for continuous learning. Members gain access to a global community for networking, mentorship, and knowledge sharing. The organization also produces research and thought leadership on emerging trends, helping professionals stay current with skills in areas like AI, agile practices, and strategic business management. These resources are designed to help professionals at all levels enhance their skills and advance their careers.

#### What is the PMBOK® Guide?

The PMBOK® Guide, or A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge, is PMI’s foundational guide to generally accepted project management knowledge and practice. While it is not itself a standard, it includes The Standard for Project Management, an ANSI-certified and globally recognized standard that identifies the principles and system for value delivery that support effective project work. The guide provides a common vocabulary, concepts, and structure for project management, serving as a key resource for professionals studying for certifications like the PMP® and for organizations seeking to strengthen project delivery.

#### How is AI changing project management?

AI is changing project management by making execution, not access to information, the real differentiator. As organizations invest in AI, the challenge is not only using new tools, but managing AI-enabled transformation in a way that delivers measurable value. Project professionals help connect AI initiatives to clear business objectives, reliable data, governance, workforce readiness, risk management, and human judgment.  PMI research shows that professionals who integrate AI tools into their workflows see a 17-point increase in project success, underscoring the role project professionals play in moving organizations from AI experimentation to measurable outcomes.

#### What are the most important skills for a project manager?

Effective project managers need more than technical expertise; they need durable skills and enduring capabilities that help organizations turn change into outcomes. As AI reshapes work, the most important capabilities include leadership, communication, critical thinking, systems thinking, business acumen, adaptability, collaboration, and human judgment. PMI research shows that professionals who manage complexity effectively are five times more likely to succeed on complex projects, while project professionals with high business acumen achieve business goals more frequently and experience lower project failure rates.


#### How can I get involved with the PMI community?

Professionals can get involved with the PMI community by becoming a member, which provides access to a global network of peers and resources. Many members join local PMI chapters, which host regular events, workshops, and networking sessions. Online, PMI's projectmanagement.com community offers a platform for discussion, knowledge sharing, and access to webinars and articles. Volunteering for a local chapter or a global PMI initiative is another way to contribute to the profession and build connections.

#### What is the difference between PMP and CAPM?

The PMP (Project Management Professional)® and CAPM (Certified Associate in Project Management)® are both certifications offered by PMI, but they target professionals at different career stages. The CAPM is an entry-level certification designed for individuals with little or no project experience, validating their understanding of fundamental project management knowledge and terminology. The PMP is for experienced project managers and requires a combination of formal education and years of documented project leadership experience, making it a more advanced and globally recognized certification.

#### How does PMI support social impact?
PMI supports social impact by helping individuals, nonprofits, NGOs, and communities use project management to turn purpose into measurable outcomes. Through the PMI Educational Foundation, PMI expands access to project management education for youth worldwide, including underserved and underrepresented populations. Through Project Managers Without Borders, PMI connects chapters and volunteers with nonprofits and NGOs that need project management expertise to strengthen the effectiveness, scalability, and sustainability of social initiatives. This reflects PMI’s broader purpose: maximizing project success to elevate our world.

THEATER 

Straw Hat 

Stars from the less-than-celestial spheres of television, movies and nightclubs have come to dominate summer theater (TIME, June 28). Mostly they tour the barns and tents in package shows—usually in post-Broadway revivals, occasionally in pre-Broadway tryouts. Some more of this season’s packages, with their scheduled stops between July 2 and Aug. 5: 

The Curious Savage is John (Teahouse) Patrick’s 1950 comedy about an eccentric widow kept luxuriously in a mental institution by her family to prevent her from giving away her fortune. Spring Byington will play the part created by Lillian Gish. Ogunquit, Me.; Falmouth, Mass.; Fitchburg, Mass.; Laconia, N.H.; Ivoryton, Conn. 

The Tender Trap opened in 1954 with Ronny Graham on a couch in a clinch. This production features Tab Hunter as the beleaguered bachelor. Latham. N.Y.; Nyack, N.Y.; Dayton, Ohio; Miami, Fla. 

Kiss Me Kate, Cole Porter’s musical melding of bard and bawd, with Marguerite Piazza as the tamed shrew. Wallingford, Conn.; Framingham. Mass.; Warwick, R.I.; North Tonawanda. N.Y. 

Oh, Men! Oh, Women!, the battle of the sexes fought on a psychoanalyst’s couch (by Franchot Tone in 1953), now with Raymond (Perry Mason) Burr. Highland Park, 111.; Vineland. Ont.; Berkeley, Calif. 

The Mackerel Plaza, a pre-Broadway tryout of a new comedy by William Mc-Cleery, is based on Peter De Vries’s novel about a widowed clergyman whose plans to remarry are frustrated by a campaign to name the town square after his first wife. Hal (Mark Twain) Holbrook stars. Cyril Ritchard directs. Westport. Conn.; Dobbs Ferry, N.Y.; Fayetteville, N.Y.; Louisville, Ky. 

She Didn’t Say Yes is a tryout of Lonnie Coleman’s comedy set in Greenwich Village, which has Joan Hackett caught in a triangle with her editor husband (William Redfield) and her novelist sister (Joan Caulfield). Mountainhome. Pa.; Fayetteville, N.Y.; Laconia. N.H.; Falmouth. Mass.: Fitchburg. Mass. 

CINEMA 

8½. Cast as a director remarkably like Italian Director Federico Fellini (who in fact directed the film), Marcello Mastroianni cannot seem to get started on a new movie project. The Fellini-Mastroianni stream of consciousness lays bare the director’s inner confusions and frustra tions, includes dreams, snatches of vaudeville, a little sex and a lot of religion. The total effect is surprisingly coherent and entertaining. 

PT 109\. In this overlong first step in the cinematic canonization of John F. Ken nedy, Actor Cliff Robertson wisely jettisons any attempt at the J.F.K. speech and hair styles. It is bad enough to hear shipmates Ty Hardin and Robert Gulp talk disrespectfully to the gung-ho young lieutenant, but then, they didn’t realize he was going to be President. Only Kennedy knew that. 

Irma La Douce. Director Billy Wilder maintains that prostitution can be fun. and Shirley MacLaine goes along with the gag. Jack Lemmon. as her Rover Boy lover boy, mugs magnificently as he bumbles about his business of trying to make Shirley go straight. 

Cleopatra. Every dollar of the $40 million spent on this epic-to-end-all-epics is dazzlingly apparent in the tons of gold leaf, typhoons of pink smoke, and wilderness of bosoms that assault the beholder. But the world’s most expensive star. Elizabeth Taylor, plays Cleo as if she were doing a fancy-dress dream sequence from Butterfield 8\. Richard Burton is all too realistic as Antony—the man who sold himself down the Nile for a sex symbol. 

Hud. Paul Newman. Patricia Neal. Melvyn Douglas and Brandon de Wilde star in the most brazenly honest picture to be made in the U.S. this season. If the question “Why Hud?” is never answered, the question “Why Hollywood?” gets a rousing and affirmative reply. 

The L-Shaped Room. Leslie Caron comes of age as an unwed mother caught in a tender romance she never bargained for. The dialogue is pungent, the situation grimly realistic, and the whole film is poignantly believable. 

BOOKS 

Best Reading 

Harry, the Rat with Women, by Jules Feiffer. From satiric cartoons, Feiffer not so lightly turns to fable writing—and the tragicomic career of a body-by-Fisher king of love and narcissism. 

House Upon the Sand, by Jurgis Gliauda. A Lithuanian novelist who endured the German occupation in World War II studies the corrosive effect of Nazi bloodymindedness on a decent German aristocrat. 

The Contrary Experience, by Herbert Read. A singular Englishman with a gift for plural and paradoxical living—he has been both a pacifist and a decorated soldier, an anarchist and a successful bureaucrat—British Critic Read tells the rich and readable story of his lives. 

The Coin of Carthage, by Bryher. The Punic Wars, seen not so much on the battlefronts as in the backwaters of living and in the private hopes and problems of small people. 

Elizabeth Appleton, by John O’Hara. Though it sometimes sounds like collected scenes from various past novels, O’Hara’s latest explores entertainingly a new area of the U.S. social order—academic life around a small college campus. 

The Gift, by Vladimir Nabokov. A comic fantasy aboutRussian émigré life in Berlin by the most famous literary magician now at work. 

The Shoes of the Fisherman, by Morris West. Spiritual hope wrestles with faith in purely earthly progress in this powerful novel about a new Pope, an old Communist and the Catholic world.
