Resumo
© 2021 IEEE.Projects are means through which organizations implement their strategies looking for competitive advantages. Despite of existence of best practices and support of management tools, project managers are still challenged with considerable failure rates. This study, through controlled experiment, demonstrates the harmful effect of task alternating, known as multitasking in project management at the resource allocation. Extending the existing research, we also demonstrated the effect of the real multitasking effect (performing two tasks simultaneously) and its detrimental consequences.
