We face new challenges in projects every day. With this CoP, we want to take a "deep dive" into a wide range of topics from the broad field of project management across all industries and develop new approaches to tackling these issues, as well as publish them in presentations and articles where appropriate.

In this meeting, we want to start with the first topic.

Rise Above Routine

1. Recognize patterns of routine thinking that limit growth and leadership effectiveness.
2. Apply a practical framework to step outside the comfort zone with confidence.
3. Reframe failure as feedback to support continuous improvement.
4. Build consistency through small, intentional actions that drive long-term results.

Dear project management friends in and around Hamburg,

this is the next event of the LG Hamburg in September:

Strong Teams don't just happen by chance - What really influences Team dynamics

Why do some teams seem to function effortlessly, whilst others, despite having skilled staff, constantly fail to work together effectively?

In this lecture, Natalie Biele demonstrates in a practical manner the factors that really shape teamwork: understanding of roles, communication, trust, conflict management and leadership.

The Dresden Local Group invites you to a meetup in a fantastic atmosphere!

Whether you are an experienced project manager, a Product Owner steering team dynamics, or a student just starting out in the world of project execution and collaboration, this evening is perfect for you. Come along to network, reflect, share a laugh, and perhaps even tell your own story. Open to professionals of all experience levels in project management, product development, and related roles, as well as anyone else interested in project management—including students.

We look forward to an engaging exchange.

Chapter Meeting Frankfurt, hosted by greybee GmbH.

In this practical webinar, Tiago Lourenço, PMP®, MSc, shares how project management principles can transform GDPR compliance into an opportunity to improve operational structure, reduce risk, and create scalable business processes.

50^th PMI Local Group Frankfurt Roundtable Sep 2026

Topic: PMI Round Table on Project Management topic

Dear PM enthusiasts, members of PMI and friends,

Greetings and here's the invite to the next English Round Table for the project management professionals living in and around the city of Frankfurt. With this event we intend to facilitate exchange between PMs, and we will talk about Project & Program Management related topic in the Organization.

This meeting will allow you to discuss on any of the project management related topic or questions in your project, program, organization, or your day-to-day activities. Our volunteer team from the PMI Germany Chapter will be available to facilitate the discussion.

Regular meeting of the Risk Management CoP - Topic: Best Practices in Risk Management

Women in Project Management – Let’s Talk!

Project management can be challenging – and sometimes, women may face different challenges than men. What has your experience been? Where do you feel things come more easily, and where might you face additional hurdles?
That’s exactly what we’d like to explore at our Women in Project Management Stammtisch – an informal opportunity to connect, exchange experiences, share ideas, and learn from one another.
We’re looking forward to an interesting, lively, and inspiring exchange – with practical tips, new perspectives, and, of course, some networking along the way.

This session opens with a guest who is no stranger in our Flight Levels Community: Lukas Schmidt starts us off with a short intro: how you depict and connect a Flight Levels Work-System Topology (WST) on a Businessmap whiteboard.
Flight Level 3 is the part that does not fit a standard board. Strategy work is not linear: it wants something much more free-flowing, and a whiteboard gives you exactly that. The Flight Level 3 board becomes a narrative you can actually depict, and that narrative is the "S" in SOFI: the stories you pull your outcomes from, before those outcomes turn into flight items. (OKRA - Objectives, Key Results, Actions - is the older Flight Levels depiction of the same idea, and all of those parts can be shown in Businessmap.)

Bring a question or a topic you'd like the group's take on.

See you there.
