Top management support: Mantra or necessity?
نویسندگان
چکیده
This research provides evidence that top management support is the most important critical success factor for project success and is not simply one of many factors. The finding is justified in the context of the project management literature and the IS factor research on project success. There are implications for practice because it appears that the conventional technical and project management advice has less impact on project success than previously thought. Boards and top managers may have to personally accept that they have more influence on whether a project succeeds or fails. 2008 Elsevier Ltd and IPMA. All rights reserved.
