No ambiente de projetos, as interações entre o gerente de projetos e os membros da equipe também podem ser afetadas por variáveis, como a cultura e o estilo de liderança do gerente de projetos. Focado nesse contexto, o objetivo desse estudo é analisar como a diversidade cultural existente entre os integrantes de projetos globais de empresas multinacionais pode influenciar a habilidade de gestão do gerente de projetos. Para isso, o estudo aborda os temas de gerenciamento de projetos, e gestão de equipes de projetos globais e empresas multinacionais, e ainda apresenta referências sobre conceitos e abordagens de cultura, destacando a diversidade cultural. Trata-se de um estudo de caso múltiplo qualitativo e descritivo, que foi realizado em empresas multinacionais com operação no Brasil. Os resultados obtidos nesta pesquisa demostram que as diferentes características culturais (idioma, valores, religião e etc) dos integrantes de um projeto global podem influenciar de forma tanto negativa quanto positiva a habilidade de gestão dos gerentes de projetos globais e que os gerentes deste tipo de projetos têm de lidar com uma série de desafios que exigem várias habilidades pessoais, sociais e de relacionamento, além da adoção de medidas para minimizar os possíveis problemas existentes neste contexto. Assim, as principais contribuições deste estudo são oferecer um melhor entendimento sobre como gerentes de projetos podem lidar com a influência da diversidade cultural na gestão de equipes de projetos globais e ainda colaborar com pesquisas futuras sobre a cultura no ambiente de gestão de projetos.

The Role of Project Leadership in Global Multicultural Project SuccessNassif, Jamal 01 January 2017 (has links)
Global projects have a high failure rate, with many project failures attributed to lack of effective leadership. A knowledge gap about leadership requirements and complexities in a global project management environment has increased the risks in global projects. The problem is evident in the increasing project failure rate and the struggling national strategies in the oil and gas industry in the Arabian Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC). The purpose of this study was to explore the role of leadership in project success and adaptation complexities in GCC. The conceptual framework consisted of complex adaptive systems and contingency theories. A qualitative approach was used to capture common understandings of project leaders' role and the opportunities and challenges in a multicultural global project environment. Personal interviews were conducted with 25 participants from the oil and gas industry in GCC who were selected using a purposive sampling method. Six themes emerged from an exploratory and comparative analysis, including: adaptable project structure with team and environment dynamics; leadership role and the impermanent multicultural environment; project success definition and the success criteria; aligned performance and governance systems; changing organizational strategy; and team building and the project complexity management. Based on study findings, a framework was created for leading 4 organizational processes in global projects, which includes the environment, team building, leadership selection, and setting of project success criteria. Higher efficiency in leading these processes may contribute to positive social change and support practitioners to promote a project environment for active knowledge integration.
