Project management, as defined by the PMBOK Guide's 7th and 8th editions, encompasses a principles‑based system of value delivery in which project managers apply tailored performance domains — including stakeholder engagement, planning, teamwork, and uncertainty management — to guide teams in producing outcomes that benefit organisations and society.

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 discuss about intermediate results of the first topics.

The construction and infrastructure industry is facing increasing complexity, growing risk, and increasing demands on professional project management. With the new PMI-Construction Professional (PMI-CP) certification, the Project Management Institute is setting an international standard specifically for the challenges of construction projects.

At this event, all members of the PMI Germany Chapter have the opportunity to ask questions on topics that interest them in connection with the PMI Germany Chapter community. The open dialog in the early evening will be moderated by Joerg Glunde, Vice President Members of the PMI Germany Chapter e.V., possibly together with other volunteers of the PMI Germany Chapter.

This is the regular calendar blocker for the meetings of our Risk Management Community of Practice (CoP) within the PMI Germany Chapter.

PMI Berlin/Brandenburg Local Group Round table

Dear (new) members of the Berlin/Brandenburg Local Group and anyone interested in project management in the Berlin area, we invite you to our monthly meetup!

As a Local Group of the PMI Germany Chapter, it's important to us to warmly welcome our (new) members and keep them informed about current developments, exciting opportunities, and news from the world of project management.

The meetup is ideal for anyone who wants to get to know us and the work of the PMI Berlin Local Group: You'll learn who we are, what we organize, and how you can get involved and actively participate. Whether you're simply curious, want to network, or are considering getting involved yourself – come along and get to know us in person.

We want to talk to you! Ask your questions, give us feedback, and share your ideas. Your opinion matters and helps us better tailor the chapter to the needs of our community.

Construction projects are under a lot of pressure—tight deadlines, complex stakeholders, and increasing demands for transparency and control. An effective Project Management Office (PMO) can be a decisive factor for success if it is understood not only as a reporting unit, but also as an active management and integration tool.

The world is facing changes such as digitalization, electrification in the automotive industry, and climate change. The focus is on — energy. In this respect, alternative energy generation options are becoming increasingly important, and the industry needs to reorient itself. Projects in particular have a special role to play here — namely, to enable these necessary innovations in the first place. Projects such as that of TenneT Germany will not remain isolated cases: >>> Link to article (LinkedIn). The Community of Practice (CoP) Energy aims to focus on finding ideas and ways in which project management can help bring these changes into the energy sector.
