Erhard Lump, founder of the local group, is looking forward to a lively turnout!

Project Business, the execution of projects for paying clients, offers big rewards but even bigger risks. When cross-organizational collaborations and execution fails, the consequences can be ugly —ranging from financial losses, legal disputes to damaged professional relationships and broken trust.

This no-fluff session explores:

▪️The Good: Revenue, agility, and innovation wins

▪️The Bad: Financial flops and trust failures

▪️The Ugly: Culture clashes, lawsuits, and leadership black holes

If your career depends on mastering customer-facing projects, this 90-minute deep dive is essential.

39^th English PMI Round Table Frankfurt

PMI Round Table on Project Management topic

Topic: The Elephant in the Room is Systems Thinking

Subtitle: How implementing Systems thinking principles helped bring clarity and control to a complex VUCA project

03.06.2025 18:30 - 20:30

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.

As we are an international team, the language of the event is English, and the questions can be discussed in German if required.

Abstract: In high-pressure environments filled with technical hurdles, shifting timelines, and endless escalations, teams often default to a firefighting mode, leaving Systems thinking principles by the wayside. But what if structure was the very thing we needed to restore clarity and deliver impact?

This talk explores how implementing a tailored, lightweight System framework transformed a chaotic, global SAP deployment involving hundreds of rollouts into a well-aligned, agile operation. Drawing on PMP-aligned pillars—scope, change, risk, cost, and knowledge management—I’ll share how, together with Project Management methodologies and Systems thinking principles, I brought measurable improvements in team morale, stakeholder trust, and delivery predictability.

Speaker (Self-Introduction Note): My name is Forough Mohseni and I am 43 years old. I immigrated to Germany in 2021. Before that, I worked for a company involved in EPC projects within the mining and steel industries. I began my career there as a process engineer and later transitioned to the projects department, where I also gained experience as a procurement manager. In 2018, I earned my PMP certification. Currently, I work at Newfer as a project manager. Our company specializes in the design and technology of iron ore pelletizing and beneficiation plants. So far, I have managed three different projects in Iran and three projects in India.

The Stammtisch Rheinland is a regular event in the Cologne-Bonn area for Project Management Professionals and Enthusiasts and for Learners preparing for their certification. We meet in a relaxed atmosphere for cross-industry exchange, personal encounters and fruitful discussions.
