dc.description.abstract | Professional certification is an
important part of many specialized
occupations. For project managers,
one certifying body is the Project
Management Institute (PMI).
To achieve their certification(s),
project managers must demonstrate
proficiency in a wide variety of
associated skills and agree to abide
by the PMI’s Code of Ethics and
Professional Conduct. In this paper,
we briefly review the underlying
ethical theoretical foundation of
stakeholder theory and the PMI’s
Code of Ethics and Professional
Conduct. We assessed the PMBOK®
Guide to determine where the
approach is one of management
of stakeholders versus one of
management for stakeholders.
The areas where there may be
inconsistencies between stakeholder
theory, the expected codes of
ethical and professional conduct for
project managers, and the PMBOK®
Guide were identified using content
analysis. It is our finding that when
project achievement is stressed
in the PMBOK® Guide, project
managers may fail to place a
priority on their moral obligation to
protect stakeholders and may fail
to demonstrate the PMI established
values of responsibility, respect,
fairness, and honesty. | |
