Hurray! We have got the first member from Vivacell at Last!
I was really waiting for this day for about 10 months, since the day the APMA has been opened.
We have got first member from VivaCell-MTS staff and he happened to be Brasilian/Lithuanian working currently Ericsson AB Sweden and he temporarily assigned to support on VivaCell project deployments in Yerevan, Armenia. Even though he is not the main staff member in VivaCell and even not Armenian by nationality (he has recently moved to Armenia) he found it interesting to join the Project Management Association to gain professional grow, though his stay in Armenia will be short.

On the one hand it is really surprising that during those 10 month of membership registration existanse no one from VivaCell was interested to join APMA. On the other hand, a question occurs: did they know anything about APMA? Well most of them have attended PM trainings previously and have known about this organization even before it was officially opened. In the whole company only one person has been interested in AMPA– Tommy Mazejian but he never joined.
For sure this is not about VivaCell and even not about any particular organization in Armenia. I wish to undertand the tactics about professional grow for managers (both project and general ones). Sometimes I wonder why it so much differs from those in Western countries.
These might be explained as low level knowledges owned by local professional organization, at least this is my answer. But if you understand what is knowledge development, you would defiantly understand that in such small country we are not creating any knowledge. All that we share and share openly is just general knowledge available from world’s large organizations.
So the only explanation I can give is that our managers are very happy with what they have. No need to go further. This is the state of mind. And this is the way how we go.
Hope this will be changed very soon. With or without our help.
Thanks for following
President of APMA
