Abstract
The last several years have witnessed a growing scholarly interest in
project-based organizations. This interest mirrors the diffusion of this
organizational form across a wide range of industries, well beyond those
where organizations traditionally have been organized by projects. To
date, however, research on project-based organizations has not yet offered
a systematic investigation of the interactions between project-based
organizing and strategic management research. An examination of the
existing literature indicates that some of the answers to key strategy
questions remain incomplete, at times contradictory, and at best
ambiguous. This volume moves the discussion to the next level by offering
a comprehensive yet integrated view of cutting-edge research on projectbased
organizing to shed light on some of these ambiguities and clarify the
relationship between project-based organizing and strategic management.
To accomplish this, the volume includes the contributions of several
leading scholars who have been active researchers on this subject. The
chapters develop and extend key strategic aspects of project-based
organizing, raise many new important questions, and identify fruitful
areas for future research.
