Abstract
En 中文
This paper reflects on the other papers published in this Festschrift for Peter Morris. It does so from Peter's personal perspectives on the discipline of managing projects. It begins by discussing the role of scholarship in shaping the discipline. It emphasizes the importance of the front-end and relates this to the semantic difficulties associated with the term 'project. The centrality of people and culture in general is noted. Types of knowledge and learning are discussed especially with regard to professionalism. Governance and the value of the owner's role are noted. The developing impact of ICT, Operations and Agile are discussed. The benefits of a historical perspective on the discipline are proposed and prospects for the future are outlined, particularly with regard to climate change. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. APM and IPMA.
