Cultural impacts in project organisations: Emerging research questions

Cicmil, Svetlana

Abstract

Svetlana will bring her critical perspective to an examination of culture in projects. She will highlight the importance of the relational in manifestations of project cultures through looking at issues of agency, risk and social psychology of trust. She will expound the impossibility of examining culture in projects without understanding the politics of power that permeates cultural allegiances. Part polemic and part exploration, Svetlana will conclude her presentation with her own provocations for the audience in the ways that they think about, research and practice cultures in project settings
