RESUMOOrganizações utilizam projetos como forma de implementar mudanças e de gerar novos produtos e/ou serviços. Estudos sobre projetos são tradicionalmente sistemáticos e focam em processos, metodologias e ferramentas que se preocupam em aspectos técnicos do que nos aspectos práticos, muitas vezes negligenciando totalmente os atores envolvidos nas atividades cotidianas. As teorias da prática preocupam-se em como as práticas são forjadas em um contexto individual e social. Este ensaio teórico explora essa lacuna e faz um recorte das práticas em projetos apresentando uma análise sob a lente das teorias da prática de como estas se formam em projetos e como são perpetuadas através de uma das mais importantes e recentes teorias sociais: as teorias de Theodore Schatzki. Concluise que projetos, por serem temporários, são fontes ricas de práticas inovadoras, porém apresentam formas complexas de organizar e perpetuar suas práticas cotidianas.Palavras-chave: Gerenciamento de Projetos.

ANALYZING PROJECTS THROUGH PRACTICE: A THEORETICAL ESSAY ABSTRACTOrganizations use projects as a way to implement change and to generate new products and / or services. Studies about projects are traditionally systematic and focus on processes, methodologies and tools that are more concerned with technical factors than with practical aspects often neglecting completely the actors involved in the daily activities. Theories of practice are concerned about how the practices are forged in an individual and social context. This theoretical essay explores this gap and provides theoretical reflection of the practices in projects presenting an analysis with the lens of the practical theories of how the practices are formed in projects and how they are perpetuated through one of the most important and recent social theories: Theodore Schatzki theories. It is concluded that projects to be temporary, are rich sources of innovative practices, but have complex ways of organizing and perpetuating their daily practices.
ISSN 0104-530X (Print) ISSN 1806-9649 (Online) Abstract: Projects form part of organizational activities and have a direct impact on the organization's results and performance. Improving project management performance can have a positive effect on an organization. Being ultimately responsible for project results, the project manager has factors within its personal characteristics that may affect project performance. The purpose of this study is to analyse the project manager's personal characteristics in relation to its effects on project performance using an empirical survey of 244 project managers. The results show that skills, knowledge and attitudes directly affect project performance and that personality traits do not have direct effects, but indirectly affect attitudes. The results also show that certification in project management does not directly affect project performance but has a moderating effect on the relationship between the project manager's skills and knowledge and project management performance. Resumo: Projetos fazem parte das atividades organizacionais e têm impacto direto nos resultados e no desempenho das organizações. A melhoria no desempenho da Gestão dos
