Organizational Project Management by Drouin Nathalie

Organizational Project Management by Drouin Nathalie

This concise text introduces an integrated view of all project management-related activities in an organization, called Organizational Project Management (OPM). Practical cases from several organizations, as well as popular theories such as the Resource-Based Theory and Institutional Theory provide for an insightful yet realistic understanding of OPM as an integrative tool for organizations to improve their efficiency and effectiveness. The reader will learn how separate organizational functions, such as project, program and portfolio management and governance integrate in a cohesive manner. The authors describe how different approaches to competing in the marketplace link to strategies, and the ways of selecting the 'best' business opportunities for organizations and integrating them into existing workflows and structures. They develop and describe a model that shows how OPM works within organizations. The book is a valuable resource for top managers, reflective practitioners, academics, and postgraduate students in organization theory.

'This fascinating book by renowned authors not only takes the organizational context of project management seriously, but also focuses on the interface as well as interplay between the temporary and the more permanent part of organizationsDiscussing the value of the resource-based view and the neo-institutional approach as well as of governmentality theory for the analysis of organizational project management, the authors elaborate on the valuable link between project management and organization theory. They illustrate their ideas with the help of case studies. Reading recommended!'
