About the Lee Mandley Volunteer Spotlight [formerly Volunteer of the Month]
Founding Director of the PMI-LA Alhambra Community Meeting located at DeVry, Lee was a Construction PM and a long-time member of the chapter. He was the voice and liaison for the San Gabriel Valley members east of Pasadena. Lee was the first director to institute round table discussions on interesting Project Management Topics when a speaker had to cancel at the last moment. Between 2012 and 2024, we presented the ‘Volunteer of the Month’ award to a key volunteer who exhibited the outstanding trait of working “outside-the-box” to ensure that chapter operations are running smoothly in their area. This award was renamed to honor Lee Mandley and renamed again 2024 to Lee Mandley Volunteer Spolitght.
