Abstract: Project management is a complex form of economic activity based on three dimensions: objective, cost and duration. Over time, the most developed countries preserved their status at global scale through knowledge, judicious use of national resources - human and material - and by taking advantage of certain natural or circumstantial advantages. Analyzing the literature, in this paper we plan to evaluate the project management styles adopted and used by three major world economies (US, Japan and Germany) and to identify those specific features that favourise the success of their projects. We consider that despite the problems arising in the implementation of projects (overruns of budget, project duration and resources), it is better to 43 organise the economic activity on a project basis, than aleatory, depending on current conditions and inspiration
