RESUMO
There has been substantial research on megaprojects in project management literature. However, there is dearth of studies empirically investigating performance of new launched megaproject of Thailand that named as "Phuket sandbox". The core purpose of this project is to normalize covid-19 situation and resuming tourism in Thailand. Therefore, the evaluation of project performance is essential to achieve the targeted goal for success. The purpose of this study is to investigate the factors that affect project performance (Phuket sandbox) in Thailand. This study used quantitative approach based on structured questionnaire and the data was collected from Phuket, Thailand. The survey conducted from team members which are tourism stake holders' team, immigration team and public service teams including hospitals and hotels who were supposed for the management of Phuket tourism sandbox operations. The study got 222 valid responses only as the members were so busy and partial lockdowns in Thailand hindered the data collection process. The proposed hypothetical model tested by partial least square structural equation modelling. The results of the study found mix findings. The independent variables are team knowledge management, interpersonal conflict, organizational trust, and as significant and dependent variable as project performance through the mediation of psychological capital. The all relationships found to be significant except problem solving competence which have insignificant relationship with project performance as well as problem solving competence and organizational trust have insignificant relation with psychological capital.
RESUMO
ABSTRACT Based on a developmental approach, this study intended to analyze the extent to which the different stages of group development differ regarding the use of knowledge management processes. The sample comprised 211 teams belonging to a Portuguese military organization. In order to test the hypotheses a multivariate analysis of variance was conducted. The results showed that more mature and cooperative groups (Restructuring/Realization phase) apply to a greater degree the processes of knowledge management, while groups in which there is high intragroup competition and in which members try to "gain power" among themselves (Reframing phase), apply these processes to a lesser degree.
RESUMO Com base em uma perspetiva desenvolvimental, este estudo analisou em que medida os diferentes estágios de desenvolvimento de um grupo diferem no que diz respeito à utilização dos processos de gestão do conhecimento. O estudo incidiu em uma amostra composta por 211 equipes pertencentes a uma organização militar portuguesa. Para testar as hipóteses formuladas, foi utilizada a análise multivariada da variância. Os resultados revelaram que grupos mais maduros e cooperativos (fase Reestruturação/Realização) aplicam em maior grau os processos de gestão do conhecimento, enquanto grupos em que existe elevada competição intragrupo e em que os membros procuram "ganhar poder" entre si (fase Reenquadramento), aplicam esses processos em menor grau.
