Dear,

Summer doesn’t mean slowing down—at least not for project management. While many are taking a well-earned pause, this month’s newsletter shows how our community continues to move forward with energy and purpose.

In this edition, you’ll find stories that connect the personal and the professional. Joachim shares how project management became his toolkit for navigating crises in healthcare. Piotr walks us through real-life ways PMI Infinity can support overloaded teams. And Anja, in her President’s Note, turns the spotlight on the quiet support systems behind every active volunteer.

We’re also proud to highlight The Great Walk—an initiative that shows how project skills can drive powerful social impact across borders. From Linz to Madrid, the journey continues—and we’ll soon be welcoming Andrew and Toby in Belgium.

It’s a mix of reflection and momentum—perfect reading for a season of both.

Warm regards,

Edi Venturin
Director of Marketing & Communication, PMI Belgium

Upcoming events

Not just practice—perspective

This month’s content reminds us that good project management isn’t just about getting things done. It’s about seeing patterns, connecting disciplines, and staying human in the process.

Paolo invites us to look beyond our industries and explore how lessons from semiconductors or pharma might help solve your next problem. Geert reflects on the shared ground between business analysts and project managers, while Tim introduces us to Vilma Gertāne, whose global initiative empowers young women to lead.

And on a European level, Tomasz explains how PMI is contributing to the EU’s Pact for Skills—a clear sign of how our profession is evolving in response to real talent gaps and future needs.

These aren’t just stories—they’re invitations to expand how we work, lead, and grow.

Stepping back—or stepping in?

Maybe you’ll just read one article. Maybe you’ll sign up for an event. Or maybe you’ll walk a few steps with us in August—when The Great Walk reaches Belgium, and we stand alongside those using project management to inspire social change.

Whatever your pace this summer, there’s a place for you in this chapter.
If something in this edition made you pause or nod or smile—follow that feeling. That’s the thread that ties this community together.

Until next time,
The PMI Belgium Team
