Effects of Project Human Resources Management on Project Success: A study of Toptech Contractors Nigeria Ltd

Abstract

The study examines the effect of project human resources on project success of Toptech Contractors Nigeria Ltd. A review of current literature showed that different studies used key indicators of human resources such as recruitment, selection, performance and appraisal as a determinant of project success without considering the role of leadership. This study assesses the situation by evaluating the extent to which leadership and recruitment account for changes in stakeholders’ satisfaction. To assess the situation, the study adopted a survey research design. 120 questionnaires were administered to staff of Toptech Contractors Nigera Ltd., Ikeja branch. Using simple random sampling techniques, the data collected was analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics, specifically correlation analysis. The findings revealed that there is a strong and positive relationship between recruitment and stakeholders’ satisfaction, and both leadership and recruitment account for changes in stakeholders’ satisfaction. The study made clear from the analysis that leadership, if properly executed, will bring about the desired response from stakeholders, thus eliciting a favourable perception. It was therefore recommended among others that the organisation should always put in place sound leadership training persuasive enough to sweep in a large volume of good leaders into its employee database and also to improve on their recruitment process as it influences stakeholders’ engagement and satisfaction.
