Abstract

Winter, Smith, Morris, and Cicmil (2006, p. 642) proposed five directions for research into project management, one of which was entitled ?Theory IN Practice?. This concept was suggested to direct ?Practitioners as Trained Technicians to Practitioners as Reflective Practitioners?. One element of my research is concerned with the development of practitioners and balancing the teaching with both soft, personal and hard, technical competences. This presentation will explain an approach to developing reflective practitioners (Schön, 1983, 1987) with the behavioural competences needed to deliver projects successfully and how this should be applied in Higher Education institutions.
