PMI Germany Chapter e.V.

The central topic of this conference is sustainable IT projects.

As a co-organizer of the “Project Management and Process Models 2023” conference, the chapter offers our volunteers, members and friends the opportunity to network with project managers outside the PMI community and to discuss technical topics.

They see uncertainty as opportunity to innovate. They dare to aim high. They’re unapologetically curious. And they’re always upskilling. These are the Future 50 executives honored by PMI this year. They are using project management to better the world around them. From healthcare to construction, electric transportation to education, they come from diverse sectors, backgrounds and geographic regions. Yet they all share a common trait: an innate ability to channel their project management skills in ways that reimagine the future, turning bold ideas into initiatives that truly make a difference.

Directly following the German PM-Summit the online conference PMI UA CONNECT'23 brings together a diverse community of project management professionals, thought leaders, and enthusiasts. The speakers are top-notch professionals who are experts in their respective domains. Their stories will torch your passion for project management, empowering you with actionable processes that you can immediately implement in your roles.

In the last five years, product management has seen a significant uptick in interest, jobs and media coverage. According to Gartner data by the end of 2023 it is estimated that 40% of large enterprises will manage internal business capabilities as products to drive continuous innovation and competitive advantage. Also, more than one-third of Fortune 100 companies have a chief product officer (CPO), showing a 41% growth rate over the past three years. Finally, more than 2,000 CPO jobs and 170,000 product manager positions are currently posted on LinkedIn.

Promoting and advancing the application of professional project management in all areas of society is PMI's major overarching goal. With almost 700,000 members, PMI is the world's largest organization in this field. For many, simply being a member of this great family is a benefit in itself. However, being a member of PMI and the PMI Germany Chapter brings many additional benefits. These are often not even known. For this reason we are going on a search for you and from now on we will present a "Benefit of the Month" every month.

In the first episodes we presented the free access to some basic works of project management, such as the PMBOK^® Guide. For a current occasion, today it should be about something very tangible, about discounts and benefits.

Our planet is in danger. It is time to act.
Scientists, non-governmental organizations and many others have been ringing the alarm bells for years.

It is time for us project professionals to take a close look at the issue as well, because it is through projects that change is shaped and achieved.

For this reason, the European PMI Chapters invite you to the Sustainability Summit 2023 on November 8, 2023.

The participation is free of charge.

The PMI Germany Chapter has set itself the task of being the network for all people in Germany who want to develop themselves further with project management, change something and be successful in doing that. 

In a world that is rapidly changing and includes a wide range of diversity, mutual understanding and adaptability are important competencies for leaders to work effectively in teams in such environments.

We work together in cross-cultural and cross-generational teams whose members all bring their own values, goals and dreams. Mutual understanding and openness to others are very important skills to be successful in projects and organizations.

Digital transformation is taking place at a rapid pace in all areas of society worldwide and is bringing about major changes. Regardless of the challenges we face, it is important to use innovation and creativity to drive projects forward.

To gain a global perspective on how AI works as a catalyst for change in digital transformation, all PMI members worldwide are invited to participate in a survey to provide insights on the use of AI in project management. The project is designed to gain a better understanding of the future of project management and organizational change through digital leadership.

How can we manage crisis situations? We think: Core competencies of project management help us to act in a goal-oriented yet flexible manner in critical situations. Agile methodologies in particular offer a wide range of ways of working and thinking that make it possible to manage complex tasks even in environments with great uncertainty. In a series of lectures we will take a closer look at this.
