MAINTENANCE OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT AS AN INSTITUTIONAL PRACTICE
Abstract
This study examines how projects are successfully conducted and how project management is maintained as an institutional practice within the complex and dynamic environment of the healthcare industry in Turkey where many different actors and departments are involved. It explores the interdependent operation of rules/norms and relations in project management. It highlights the importance of being flexible in the implementation of rules and developing multiple norms acceptable for different departments. It also emphasizes building trust and reciprocity and using conditional positions of dominance. The study shows that creating an informal environment based on inclusive rules/norms and reflecting them in relations through trust/reciprocity and role reversals are critical for the success of project management. It develops suggestions for companies to improve and ensure the long-term maintenance of project management.
