The culture of the organization can impact the effectiveness of different project management structures. I have worked with Project Managers from Microsoft and Boeing, and they have very different project management structures and processes. Each work well within their own companies. Questions: 1.) Why is it important to assess the culture of an organization before deciding what project management structure should be used to complete a project? 2.) What do you believe is more important for successfully completing a project-the formal project management structure or the culture of the parent organization?
