How can you manage an evolving project? Project leaders have significant responsibility as they grow teams, manage temporary and changing organisations, and hand over into operations. A strand of our work examines project strategies, practices and processes.
Researchers are examining projects as a form of large-scale organising, taking process perspectives to address questions of their temporality, as well as examining how boards make decisions about organisational change projects and studying questions about people in projects and human resource management in project-based organisations.
To achieve this we draw on expertise across the University of Sydney, including in the Business School and Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences.
