Impact of organizational behavior (OB) in the success of Projects

Abstract

Project is a unique work for a specific period of time. The composition of the team would depend upon the nature of work. As created by this uniqueness a successful project does not wholly depend upon the resources but also on the combination of people who make up the team. In a global scenario, this is more so in modern times and the team would be heterogeneous in composition. The proposed research work has the aim of analyzing the impact of organizational behaviour in project management. Review of literature indicates that the aspect of organizational behaviour in the field of project management has been introduced in various fields of science and related its usefulness in practical applications. Studies carried out on the root causes failure of a project leads to factors such as lack of attention given when the team is selected for projects of complex nature. A descriptive research methodology is adapted to identify a relationship between project management and organizational behaviour principles. In the past such a correlation has not been attempted realistically, thus it was found that such a study would be not only enriching and useful but also interesting. Therefore an attempt to this effect is being made through this research work. The findings will give an insight on to the relevance of practicable methods to deal with project management at a global operations level and may serve as input in improving efficiency, ensuring transparency in business methods and support further research on the subject.
