Governance and creativity in project-based organizations: Archetypes and agenda for future research 

 - Project Management Journal

<br/><br/> Prior research on the governance of project-based organizations has centered on the efficiency problem: on compliance, control, and a concern for doing things right. Less research has addressed the creativity problem: how governance practices spur novel thinking, idea generation, and innovation. We discern four governance archetypes for addressing the creativity problem along two creativity dimensions: creativity locus and creativity orientation. These archetypes are exemplified by case illustrations from four firms, highlighting key differences in how project-based organizations address the creativity problem. We present an agenda for future research emphasizing the need for comparative and longitudinal studies.- Reproduced <br/><br/>https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/87569728241296808<br/>
