English BookClub November

This event will be held in English language!

Welcome to the PMI Book Club - November Edition
As we continue our fall focus on Business Acumen, this month’s session explores how project professionals can enhance their decision-making by understanding business value and organizational priorities. Whether you’re delivering complex programs or leading a team, the ability to think strategically and act with business insight is key to long-term impact.

Join host Emma Simon as we unpack what it really means to think strategically, understand the business as a whole, and make smart, value-driven decisions.

We’re curating a powerful selection of content to guide this conversation, including books, articles, and interviews with thought leaders.

The final reading list will be released in July 2025.

The materials will center on:

• Strategic decision-making in project and portfolio contexts
• Understanding business drivers and trade-offs
• Translating strategy into project-level action

You’ll receive the reading list via email and our PMI Book Club group as soon as it’s available.

Key Questions We’ll Explore

• What frameworks can guide smarter business decisions in projects?
• How do we identify and prioritize business value?
• How can PMs and leaders communicate trade-offs and ROI effectively?
• What does it mean to be a “strategic partner” in project delivery?
