Happy Project Management Day!

Today is the International Project Management Day (IPM Day), the 6th year its been celebrated. Today is the day that all Project Managers should be getting a pat on the back and is “dedicated to recognizing the extraordinary efforts made by project management professionals everywhere -across industries and geographies.”
So, how does it feel? And what will you be doing differently today? Planning on celebrating your special day?
Well the International Project Management Day is being celebrated with a webcast! Which is pretty underwhelming really but also I think says alot about the project management industry worldwide and in the UK. Do we really have a community anyway? Do we celebrate the successes in projects and the success of a project manager who delivers?
So in an ideal world what should the International Project Management Day really be about and how should we celebrate? I don’t have any answers but it would be great if anyone could share their thoughts (leave a comment by clicking the comment tab near the title)
Footnote:
Unfortunately, for some bizarre reason, the International Project Management Day is not until the 11th November in the UK (see the PMI UK Chapter) which just adds to the confusion for PMs in the UK!
