Description
Summary:Project communication and collaboration is a crucial activity that makes or breaks a project. And thus the territorial development today cannot do without a new generation of projects that embody the real needs of residents and visitors. Excellent technical skills and intuition may be insufficient to drive performance if not accompanied by appropriate levels of interpersonal interaction within project groups. Evidently that Global participation platforms and social networks like Facebook, LinkedIn and others and a mass of local blogs and web communities are an important source for next generation of project managers. How these new technologies will impact organizations, however, is not entirely clear. Therefore, it represents an important field for information systems research. This paper presents a survey study of the intrusion of social media in project management. We investigate some basic questions such as the possibilities, dangers, and limits (e. g. legal or ethical) of using social media services in project management. Also we analyzed the existed approaches that can serve as a start point for the successful and efficient implementation of such services. Ours results indicate that social media analysis can serve as an improvement tool for project management of territory development to reduce the product development time and associated cost through the implementation of social network analysis
