Ken Roundtree, PMP, PMI-ACP, CSM, CSPO, ITIL

Director of Credential Study Groups

“It’s been a tremendous privilege and honor to have made such a positive difference in so many people’s personal lives. The past six plus years were the most rewarding years of my life.”
Ken Roundtree has supported more than 200 PMP/CAPMs, by contributing more than 2000 volunteer hours. The Phoenix PMI Chapter owes a huge debt of gratitude and heartfelt thanks for his gift of time. Students remember his tone of voice and often claim to have heard Ken’s voice in their head while taking the certification exam. Perhaps it was his radio DJ background, or his magnanimous personality. He will be remembered for his humorous style of learning, and RAPs to trigger a lapse in memory.
Behind every great leader is a team. In person sessions enjoyed Mama Roundtree’s delicious baked goods. His facilitator group wrote white paper to educate and capture the learnings and they established a learning website, http://www.dokboard.org  to celebrate success.
When COVID-19 struck, the chapter asked Ken to be flexible and to create a new delivery method so the study group learning could continue. Ken Roundtree rose to the challenge and the virtual study group was born by leveraging his experience as a Google trainer for the State of Arizona.
It might be the end of his journey as a lead study group facilitator, but the legacy lives on in perpetuity. The mighty volunteer facilitators group that is made up of prior students, paying it forward will continue to support future PMPs.
As Ken says, Study on, OINK OINK!
