Having no cooperation from the senior management may cause conflict in the project process

Abstract

This research paper is related to the modern and stressful conditions of work environments and the possibility of conflict between the Project Manager and the Senior Management representatives, which might generate unpleasant situations and affect the project process. A major internal issue, which may lead to a project process malfunction, is the lack of co-operation from the senior management of the corporation. A possible result of having no co-operation from the upper management is conflict. After having examined the literature review thoroughly, the results extracted showed that the lack of co-operation from the senior management will lead to conflict during the project process. The best way to avoid this situation is by exercising communicational tactics and by using every necessary tool of the project management properly in order to ensure the high quality standards of the project procedure, the interpersonal relationships inside the team and the reputation of the organization.
