Abstract
The emergence of a project culture is closely tied to the emergence and development of an organisational culture. Project culture is a subculture of a business system’s organisational culture. To a great extent growth and development, i.e. the design o f business system strategies through the realisation of project programs and with the assistance of the project management, depend upon project culture. When the project culture fails to attain a substantial level, this leads to difficulties in carrying out projects, as well as business system strategies, and puts a strain on the work of the project management and the project team as a whole.
The creation and development of project cultures in business systems and society as whole has been influenced by the development of project management. In the future, project management development will continue to have considerable impact of the development of project culture in business systems and in society as a whole.
Changes to the project culture are essential for the survival and growth o f business systems. These changes are all the more likely to succeed if they first take hold at the top level of business systems, and then work their way down towards the subsystems. This makes the relation of management towards strategies and project programs a pivotal factor for project culture and in turn, a key factor to the successful execution of the project program.
