Project systems’ complexity model and its influence on performance of International Development Projects

Osnovni cilj istraživanja predstavlja ispitivanje faktora kompleksnosti koji utiču na performanse međunarodnih razvojnih projekata. Savremeni izazovi u upravljanju međunarodnim razvojnim projektima doveli su do povećane kompleksnosti ove vrste projekata, što je u poslednjih nekoliko godina podstaklo istraživače da publikuju veliki broj radova na ovu temu. Dobijeni model kompleksnosti razvijen je kombinovanjem rezultata Delfi istraživanja sa rezultatima kvantitativnog istraživanja. Model kompleksnosti može biti primenjen od strane praktičara i akademika za procenu nivoa kompleksnosti međunarodnih razvojnih projekata.The main goal of the research is to examine complexity factors that influence International Development projects. Contemporary challenges in ID projects have led to their growth in their complexity, which in recent years has driven researches in recent years to publish numerous papers that deal with this topic, demonstrating its importance in current project management research. The research in the dissertation was done by conducting mixed research method – by comparing Delphi methodology in the qualitative part, with quantitative research. The model represents a novel theoretical lens for assessing complexity in ID projects by both academics and practitioners
