Abstract

The object of the study is human resource management in IT projects, where the diversity of cultural characteristics and communication practices can affect the efficiency of task performance. The main problem addressed in this study is to identify the key factors that affect the effectiveness of human resource management in IT projects and to identify problem areas that need to be adjusted to improve the productivity and quality of teamwork. The study findings showed that the effectiveness of human resource management in IT projects largely depends on four main aggregate indicators: communication and interaction, cultural factors, leadership and management, and technical and professional skills. In particular, the model found that improved communication and interaction, as well as leadership and management, have the greatest positive impact on overall performance. Instead, cultural differences can create barriers that negatively affect teamwork performance. The findings are explained by the fact that effective communication and interaction are fundamental to coordinating teamwork, ensuring clarity of tasks, and timely information exchange. Leadership and management determine team motivation, conflict resolution strategies, and the overall direction of activities. The negative impact of cultural factors is explained by language barriers, differences in work approaches, and other cultural characteristics that can make it difficult to understand and cooperate. These findings can be used in practice in IT projects where multicultural teams work. They provide valuable guidance for leaders and managers on which aspects of management to focus on to improve team effectiveness. In particular, effective communication practices should be implemented, leadership skills and strategic planning should be developed, and cultural sensitivity should be taken into account, as well as training and development of technical and professional skills of team members. This will help overcome cultural barriers, improve collaboration, and increase the overall productivity of IT projects.
