Large-scale projects are experiencing unprecedented risks and uncertainties around the world, due to internal dynamics, such as incomplete contracts, varied governance structures, long-term contractual periods, as well as external adversities, namely political, economic, legal, social, and project-specific factors.

These large-scale projects, typically involving multiple stakeholders in a specific government structure, such as public-private partnerships (PPPs), are inherently inter-organizational projects (IOPs) and are not immune to these overwhelming risks and uncertainties.

The involvement of multiple stakeholders raises the issue of heterogeneity of project participants. That is, the risks and uncertainties for projects are interwoven with varied institutional logics carried by various project stakeholders.

Large-scale projects face institutional complexity when they confront incompatible prescriptions from multiple institutional logics.

Hence, Linzhuo Wang, Ralf Müller (LinkedIn profile) argue that the design of governance systems of collaborative relationships should aim for resolving institutional complexity, which further improves organizational resilience for IOPs.

By adopting a sequential qualitative-quantitative approach, we conduct research based on empirical evidence to address the issue of resilience of IOPs under institutional complexities.

Consequently, this research broadens the perspectives of earlier studies by proposing a shift from focusing on operational conflicts to institutional conflicts and has identified a dynamic stakeholder engagement strategy toward improved resilience.

This novel perspective is better aligned with practical reality and provides a comprehensive theoretical framework of governance for improved resilience in the face of institutional complexity.

Do we as project managers know where we stand?

In terms of capabilities and competencies?

Further do our organizations follow the necessary processes and have the systems and framework to meet project objectives?

In particular Raju looks at the following:

• Overview of PMI Standards focused on process and capability improvement
• Methods for assessments to know where we are for people and organizations
• Gap analysis of capabilities with respect to standards
• Methods and projects for improving project managers and the organizations
• Capabilities and competencies required to implement the improvement plans

The session will include sample exercises for assessments both for project managers and organizations and case studies.

Decisions are difficult at the best of times. We like to believe that decision makers are rational and that decisions are arrived at by detailed analysis and careful consideration of all of the options. The reality is that many decisions—especially in the world of business—are made for reasons that are altogether irrational.

Making good decisions is hard. Making rational decisions is virtually impossible. We have biases, cognitive limitations, insufficient time, incomplete knowledge and an imperfect understanding of what is going on. The consequence is that we try to make the best decisions that we can under the circumstances.

That’s not to say that decision making can’t be helped. Decisions can be nudged. They can also be outright manipulated. The line between those truths can at times be a very fine line.

In this presentation Mark Mullaly (LinkedIn profile) author of Researching the Value of Project Management dives deep into the process of decision making.

Mark explores the biases and limitations that every one of us works with, and how they influence and at times compromise our ability to decide well.

He provides insights into how biases can be manipulated, and what both decision makers and those making decision recommendations need to do to be aware of—and manage the impact—of potential manipulations.

If you want to learn how to make and support better project decisions, this is a presentation that you won’t want to miss.
