Disruption and agility dynamics in project management processes: an institutional theory approach

Disruption and agility dynamics in project management processes: an institutional theory approach
Disruption and agility dynamics in project management processes: an institutional theory approach
This study aims to contribute to the critical discourse on project management processes within the vein of institutional theory. Specifically, the study will focus on the dynamics between disruptive elements and agility which lead to process and organisational change. This empirical research will focus on how project professionals have had to adapt and adopt new organisational routines, particularly following Covid-19. The global coronavirus pandemic has had a profound and dramatic impact on working practices, especially in professional occupations who rapidly shifted to home-based working. Individuals, industries, and organisations of all sizes have had to re-evaluate their management processes and project priorities as a result of the disruptive impact of the pandemic crisis.

Abstract

This study aims to contribute to the critical discourse on project management processes within the vein of institutional theory. Specifically, the study will focus on the dynamics between disruptive elements and agility which lead to process and organisational change. This empirical research will focus on how project professionals have had to adapt and adopt new organisational routines, particularly following Covid-19. The global coronavirus pandemic has had a profound and dramatic impact on working practices, especially in professional occupations who rapidly shifted to home-based working. Individuals, industries, and organisations of all sizes have had to re-evaluate their management processes and project priorities as a result of the disruptive impact of the pandemic crisis.
