Abstract

Bu çalışma, farklı pek çok aktörün ve departmanın rol oynadığı, karmaşık ve değişken yapıdaki Türk sağlık sektöründe projelerin nasıl başarılı bir şekilde yürütüldüğünü ve proje yönetiminin kurumsal bir pratik olarak nasıl muhafaza edildiğini incelemektedir. Çalışma, proje yönetiminde kuralların/normların ve ilişkilerin bağlantılı şekilde kullanılmasını konu edinmektedir. Kuralların uygulanmasında esnekliğin ve değişik departmanlarca kabul görecek çoklu norm sisteminin yanısıra, karşılıklı güvenin ve durumsal güç pozisyonlarının önemine işaret etmektedir. Çalışma, kapsayıcı kurallara/normlara dayanan ve bu kapsayıcılığın karşılıklı güven ve rol değişimleriyle ilişkilere yansımasını sağlayan gayri resmi bir ortamın, proje yönetiminin başarısı için gerekli olduğunu göstermekte, firmaların proje yönetim pratiklerini iyileştirebilmeleri ve uzun dönemde muhafaza edebilmeleri için öneriler sunmaktadır.

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.
