Project teams are becoming an increasingly important factor in business. Traditional quantitative project management tools no longer give project teams a competitive edge - additional qualitative tools are required, following a systems approach. A paradigm shift away from the traditional triangle of budget, brief and time towards a stronger focus on people issues is proposed. As people do not behave in a linear way, as required for quantitative tools, new methods and tools are required for project team success.enProject teamsProject managementProject team successResearch and developmentR&D environmentIndustrial engineeringSystems engineeringEngineering managementSustainable global developmentSuccessful project teams (in R&D environment)Conference PresentationGiesler, A.
