Project leadership and society, December 2021, Volume: 2Journal Article
While projectification of society has received attention in research, little has been done to exemplify underlying processes and actors involved. By applying institutional theory, we offer an explanatory avenue. Our explorative research advances the understanding of how project management associations influence the projectification of society. To answer this question, we drew on available insights, interviewed international experts and conducted a case study on institutional work of the German Project Management Association. Project management associations have so far focused primarily on the corporate world and have done little for the projectification of society overall. Especially in times of disruption and major challenges for society, the support of project management associations becomes necessary. The application of institutional theory opens promising perspectives for future research on the projectification of society. Our findings on project management associations are not only relevant for researchers, but also for decision-makers in all areas of the society. •Institutional theory offers a promising avenue for understanding projectification of society.•Project management associations exert influence through institutions on the projectification of society.•Associations have so far focused primarily on the corporate world and have done little for the projectification of society overall.
