Why Attend
We loved meeting you at the Conference 2023!
The PMI Portugal Conference, ART & SCIENCE of PROJECT LEADERSHIP, took place in Lisbon on October 12th and 13th, 2023, and it was magnificent!
It was extraordinary to meet around 160 people willing to learn and contribute. The topics were relevant to the present and the future. All the speakers were amazing, thought-provoking, and inspiring!
The dynamics were designed to allow questioning and experiential learning. The environment was welcoming, collaborative, and festive. The World Café was WOW! All participants contributed to learning together and to co-creating the future.
Aiming higher when facing the challenges and the opportunities of a fast-changing world where AI is a reality, we grabbed the opportunity to explore art and science, focus on people and leadership, and unlock power skills.
Within Project Management, it is essential that we learn to unlearn and that each of us is willing to grow, be agile, and make things easy to navigate complexity. We must prioritize cultivating active listening, effective communication, and building meaningful connections.
When we embrace curiosity through practice and commitment, together we can transform the way we do things, make things happen, and have a positive ripple impact.
Experiencing the PMI cultural values along the way was very special. The interactions with the audience, the live graphic design, the fado, the 20 years’ awards, and the ID badges with wildflower seeds for each of us to plant and nurture after the conference added a special touch to these beautiful days.
We now have much to reflect upon and put into practice!

Who is this conference for?
The PMI Portugal Annual conference is for Project Management professionals who want to invest in career building skills and build their network, students and prospective Project Managers curious about Project Management and Leadership.

We set the standard in top quality work to create the greatest impact for the PMI community. We lead the way by thinking long-term and acting in the short-term. We fearlessly take ownership of what we do, knowing every action counts.
We create genuine belonging for all, because our differences make us stronger. We act with humanity, showing care, empathy and respect for others’ needs. We assume good intent and seek to understand, not judge.
We are always seeking ways to better serve the PMI community. We see challenges as opportunities to innovate, and take them. We feel able to fail fast in order to get it right.
We build deep, trusting relationships that help us work towards our mission together. We use our shared purpose to unite us as a community and drive us forward to create impact. We act in alignment with our global goals, while being empowered to deliver locally.
We are easy to deal with. When things slow us down, we find a better way. We prioritize the impact that matters most and take the most direct route to it.
