As PMI Germany Chapter, it is important to us to warmly welcome our new members to the chapter and inform them about current developments, exciting offers, and news from the world of project management. That is why we hold our monthly welcome hour for new members—a format for exchange, insights, and participation. At this event, our new members have the opportunity to ask questions about topics that interest them in connection with the PMI Germany Chapter community. The open dialogue in the early evening is moderated by Jörg Glunde, Vice President of Membership of PMI Germany Chapter e.V., possibly together with other volunteers from the PMI Germany Chapter.

Believe in your Profession

Amazing results mean amazing efforts from believers. I found many stories to share with you about belief. The first question we need to answer is “do I believe in myself? Am I aware of the great possibilities around me, my career, my colleagues. One of my preferred sentences is “you could be my teacher”. I am always open to learning from anybody, anyplace, under any circumstances. Are you ready to do that?

This month, we dive into one of the most timely and thought-provoking ideas of our era: the power of rethinking.

Book: Think Again by Author: Adam Grant
Host: Liz Hector, The ProjectSkillsMentor

In Think Again, Adam Grant challenges the assumption that intelligence is about having the right answers.

Instead, he argues that true wisdom lies in our ability to question our own beliefs, unlearn outdated ideas, and stay mentally flexible in a fast-changing world. In Think Again, Adam Grant challenges the assumption that intelligence is about having the right answers.

At our meetings so far last year, it has become clear that our members would like to take a closer look at the PMBOK® Guide. At the next meeting, one of our participants will give a presentation on the topic of ‘Finance in the Performance Domains’ and show how these can be applied in projects in the life sciences sector.
Afterwards, we would like to initiate a discussion and exchange our own experiences and good practices.

Presenter: Richa Agarwal—AI/ML Transformation Leader | Project Manager | AI Service Delivery Specialist | PMI-SME | Women in Projects Network

Event Description
Artificial Intelligence and Automation are no longer experimental technologies—they are strategic drivers of organizational change. For project professionals, this shift brings both opportunity and complexity.
In this PMI webinar, Navigating Change: AI & Automation, we will explore how AI-driven transformation reshapes delivery models, stakeholder expectations, governance structures, and risk frameworks. The focus is not just on tools but on leading change effectively in environments where automation and intelligent systems are embedded into business operations.
This webinar is designed for project managers, program leaders, PMO professionals, and transformation specialists who want to strengthen their leadership capability in an increasingly AI-driven world.

Join us for a forward-looking discussion on how to lead with confidence as AI and automation redefine the future of project management.
