Organisations need to link portfolio of projects to business strategy to optimise organisational benefits, and make sure their business will survive in competitive environments. This research aims to define the benefit of using mix approaches to integrate organisational strategies with their portfolio of projects for project-based companies. This paper illustrates how the use of mix approaches of project portfolio management (PPM), balanced scorecard (BSC), and analytic hierarchy process (AHP) can increase organisational performance and effectiveness in a real life case company. An effective PPM conceptual model is proposed to illustrate the overall roadmap from organisational strategy to projects. Further, a portfolio strategy map is developed to visualise the cause and effect connection between portfolios and other strategic objectives using BSC approach. Finally, this study defines a portfolio selection criteria procedure using AHP to evaluate and select the right projects. Four workshops of project experts were convened, and several case study projects were considered to facilitate the success of the portfolios thereby adding value to the company.

Motivation can have paradoxical effects on the performance of projects and their outcomes. The aim of this study is to develop an effective system of motivation in the context of project-based organisations. The responses were captured through a four-round of online-Delphi. The study finds a strong reciprocal relationship between the motivation at individual level and motivation at team level, since the sub-objectives that individuals pursue are likely to be strongly related to each other and contribute to the goal that the team mutually generates and pursues. Motivation at individual and team level is correspondingly consistent in terms of three main aspects: goal-generation, goal-striving and motivational-states. Thus, an inclusive conceptualisation of motivation within the project team requires a multilevel-approach of horizontal and vertical alignments of motivational objectives and practices. This could be attained by developing an appropriate project structure and team process that can maximise individuals' contributions and minimise the inter-conflict.
