Resumo: | Although project management is widely used in the public sector, many projects still fail even when project management tools and practices are employed. Several studies show that a project's success depends partly on the project manager's competencies; however, there is little empirical research on this subject in the public sector. This study aims to analyze the significant characteristics linked with the competencies of the public sector project manager and outlines a profile of these professional competencies characteristics that can lead to the success of projects. Through empirical research conducted with 77 project managers from 32 public organizations in Brazil, this study examined the relationship between project managers' competencies and the likelihood that projects will succeed. Using factor analysis and logistic regression, we looked at factors like time, cost, quality, and scope to determine their relationship to the likelihood that projects will succeed. The findings highlight the importance of project management knowledge, communication abilities, attitudes relating to motivation, trust, and emotional intelligence, and most traits defining project managers in the public sector. The employee's length of service was the single factor that had a negative impact on the project's outcomes. This study contributes to the current knowledge of project managers' competencies in the public sector, showing the main characteristics a successful project manager needs to have and can help direct efforts in selecting a more suitable professional, contributing to the reduction of the turnover of the workforce and the consequent loss of knowledge of the organization. |

Vários estudos mostram que o sucesso de um projeto depende em parte das competências do gerente de projeto; no entanto, há pouca pesquisa empírica sobre esse assunto no setor público. Este estudo tem como objetivo analisar as características significativas ligadas às competências do gerente de projetos do setor público e traçar um perfil das características dessas competências profissionais que podem levar ao sucesso dos projetos. Por meio de pesquisa empírica realizada com 77 gerentes de projetos de 32 organizações públicas no Brasil, este estudo examinou a relação entre as competências dos gerentes de projetos e a probabilidade de sucesso dos projetos. Usando análise fatorial e regressão logística, foram analisados fatores como tempo, custo, qualidade e escopo para determinar sua relação com a probabilidade de sucesso dos projetos. Os resultados destacam a importância do conhecimento em gerenciamento de projetos, habilidades de comunicação, atitudes relacionadas à motivação, confiança e inteligência emocional e a maioria das características que definem os gerentes de projetos no setor público. O tempo de serviço do funcionário foi o único fator que impactou negativamente os resultados do projeto. Este estudo contribui para o conhecimento atual das competências dos gerentes de projetos do setor público, mostrando as principais características que um gerente de projetos de sucesso precisa ter e pode ajudar a direcionar esforços na seleção de um profissional mais adequado, contribuindo para a redução da rotatividade da força de trabalho e a consequente perda de conhecimento da organização.Universidade Nove de Julho - Uninove2023-08-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.uninove.br/gep/article/view/2365110.5585/gep.v14i2.23651Revista de Gestão e Projetos; v. 14 n. 2 (2023): (maio/ago.); 31-542236-0972reponame:Revista Gestão e Projetos (GeP)instname:Universidade Nove de Julho (UNINOVE)instacron:UNINOVEenghttps://periodicos.uninove.br/gep/article/view/23651/10342Copyright (c) 2023 Dos autoreshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessLemos Dias, TacianaSilva Oliveira, BrunoJanes Carneiro, Teresa Cristinade Moura, Ralf Luisdos Santos Lima, Susileia2023-08-01T13:45:31Zoai:ojs.periodicos.uninove.br:article/23651Revistahttps://periodicos.uninove.br/gepPRIhttps://periodicos.uninove.br/gep/oaigep@uninove.br || editor@revistagep.org || crismonteiro@uninove.br2236-09722236-0972opendoar:2023-08-01T13:45:31Revista Gestão e Projetos (GeP) - Universidade Nove de Julho (UNINOVE)false |
