Iulian Virlan

Iulian Virlan Iulian brings more than ten years of experience leading projects at the crossroads of strategy, governance, and data, with a strong focus on the education sector. Throughout his career, he has steered complex portfolios, built project management offices from the ground up, and transformed large volumes of data into decisions that people can understand and act upon.

He is guided by a simple belief: a good project, much like a good map, only matters if one knows exactly where one is going and why. For Iulian, methodological rigor and genuine human attention are not opposites; rather, they are partners in achieving meaningful and sustainable outcomes.

Today, Iulian is particularly drawn to risk management methodologies, including PMP-Risk, a discipline in which anticipation becomes both an art and a science. He is also interested in data governance, the quiet but essential craft that gives organizations the confidence to trust their own information and decisions.

Having built his career in education, Iulian is now seeking to bring his experience into a new industry. He is curious to discover how the same principles of structure, trust, and clarity can take root in unfamiliar ground.

Iulian joined the PMI Switzerland Chapter to participate in events and discover inspiring people within the PMI community. Outside his professional interests, he enjoys hiking, skiing, cooking, and traveling.
