dc.description.abstract | Construction project management (CPM) in developing countries (DCs) tends to experience high levels of failure. These failures have been attributed to technical, behavioural and economic factors. However, in an increasingly globalised world, understanding cultural dimensions and their impacts has become essential for effective CPM. This study therefore examines how national cultural dimensions (NCDs) affects CPM in DCs. Six dimensions that were identified from the review were used in a survey of 140 project management experts. Using exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, a scale was obtained and validated through structural equation modelling. The results reveal that the level of inequality and the orientation of a developing country with respect to time can significantly predict CPM in these countries. This study draws managerial attention to how different cultural dimensions and collaboration among project team members impact CPM. The value of this research lies in the creation of a model that contributes to the understanding of CPM in DCs from the cultural perspective. This will help project managers to properly devise ways of dealing with cultural misunderstandings, which will eventually lead to appropriate approaches to CPM in these countries. | ca |
