Efeitos da orientação empreendedora no sucesso de projetos

Abstract

Project development and so its management, is a strategy commonly used by companies while working on search of their goals. The large use of this strategy evolves parallel to an awareness of the importance of achieving success over the strategy application, in other words, projects success. This awareness is clearly visible over the number of studies concerning the understanding of variables affecting projects success. Similarly, entrepreneurial orientation is a research topic with consolidated significance in the entrepreneurship research field, and with significant developments over the last decades. This study aimed to analyze the effects of Entrepreneurial Orientation (EO) of organizations over the project’s success (PS) developed by them. The methodology that grounded this research is the quantitative analysis, through the structural equation modeling (SEM) method, and using survey as the data-gathering tool to find 100 valid answers. The main result observed was the positive relation between the Entrepreneurial Orientation of organizations and the project’s success developed by them, allowing the development of this research subject in the academic area, as well as the deduction of corporative practices that could contribute to projects success. In the practical way, it was possible to recognize one more benefit that will join the team of benefits generated by EO, among others that were already been verified in other researches.
