Klein","doi":"10.1177/87569728231169415","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1177/87569728231169415","url":null,"abstract":"I find it difficult to imagine any two management disciplines that are more interwoven than project management and information technology (IT) management. Were it not for project management, fewer technology implementations would have been completed with any degree of success. IT provides project managers with tools and principles to assist in attaining their success, has fundamentally altered practice, and should continue to do so (Steen et al., 2022; Whyte, 2019). Fundamental practices of each hold recognizable similarities, such as the early practices in information system development of structured programming with hierarchy charts and modularization paralleling the use of work packages in work breakdown structures to break larger concepts into manageable units. The waterfall approach to systems development followed from the concepts of planned projects, while agile development crossed from the IT world to be a major force in the management of projects. That’s not to say that the cross-fertilization was always recognized or capitalized upon. Revisiting my days as a consultant and director of a data processing shop (yes, it WAS called that) in the 1970s, I recall the frustrations associated with managing the design, development, and deployment of productive software. At that time, the most common advice was to estimate the time and cost of new software based on expectations of lines of code, then doubling or even quadrupling that estimate to have any realistic chance of meeting expectations. I think it was that frustration, as much as anything else, that led me back to earn my doctorate. Since those early days, I have dedicated most of my instruction and study to the improvement of the IT deployment process by considering and applying principles, practices, and theories of project management. My interest in projects as a critical body of knowledge to improve the process of digitizing organizations has opened many doors of opportunity, including faculty positions, conference organizing, and editorial roles. More importantly, it introduced me to scholars around the world who became coauthors, colleagues, and friends. Many of these individuals are represented in the pages of this special issue through their contributions to the advancement of IT management, project management, or both. In particular, I am grateful to Ralf Müller, friend and co-editor-in-chief of Project Management Journal, who suggested this special issue, and to my good friend and frequent coauthor James Jiang (JJ), who composed this issue. Just as JJ opened this issue with an excellent look forward into the world of digital strategies, I’m going to close with a reflection on our past work in the field of IT project management. A good deal of my colleagues’ and my work has roamed across many topics, theories, levels, and practices but I’ll focus on those related to major project research themes. One of the articles in this issue provides an excellent overview of the topics covere","PeriodicalId":47967,"journal":{"name":"Project Management Journal","volume":"80 1","pages":"458 - 462"},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80375348","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The idea behind collecting articles for this issue was to show the associations between project and program studies and information system research. The included articles are the products of Gary’s coauthors, colleagues, students, and friends and represent research paths that cross frequently and merge occasionally. I’ll introduce these articles at the end of this editorial, but first I will fulfill a request to describe the current information technology (IT) practice of digital transformation (DT) and how research addresses aspects of DT. DT introduces digital technology into the existing enterprise management structure to promote a systematic remodeling of information structures, management methods, operating mechanisms, and production processes, all of which objectively require enterprises to break with traditional industrialized management. DT changes the original logic of enterprise management thinking and drives enterprise production management to become more intelligent; enterprise marketing management to be more precise; and enterprise resource management to be more efficient, thus bringing about disruptive innovations in management paradigms and management systems. DT evolved from early systems providing data support of operations toward enablement of organizational strategy—from collecting and reporting information toward capitalizing on emerging technology that modifies or realizes strategic intent. While organizations managed early system developments as projects, DTs are too massive and complex, requiring a programmanagement approach (Davies & Kopcho, 2021). Research on managing IT initiatives parallels that evolution, initially striving to overcome high rates of IT implementation failure but lately more focused on concerns that 70% of DTs fail to achieve promised results (Forth et al., 2020). I’ll present a little about DT program management based on limited studies and early results from our ongoing studies of the Midea Group.","PeriodicalId":47967,"journal":{"name":"Project Management Journal","volume":"318 1","pages":"327 - 333"},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80166093","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article presents a nuanced view of processual engagement with ethics rather than a narrower decision model-based approach based on responses to various ethically challenging scenarios that may confront project managers. Based on qualitative data from a more extensive study we find that practitioner considerations regarding specific ethical decisions range from precursors to the development of a situation as a problem through particular actions and decisions, to potential ways that adverse outcomes can be remediated, and positive ones enhanced. We find that these concerns arise in addition to ethical decision-making considering all three core ethical views collectively, though not necessarily by each individual. The findings suggest broadening the investigation of ethical behavior from making better judgments to structuring the environment where such choices are made, laying solid foundations for ensuring positive choices, and working with even poor choices when they are still the best available to mitigate and control consequences.","PeriodicalId":47967,"journal":{"name":"Project Management Journal","volume":"22 1","pages":"334 - 348"},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78683726","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
