ABSTRACT
We investigate the influence of governance
structures of temporary organizations on
the ethical issues faced by its managers,
how they respond to these issues, and how
that influences trust among stakeholders. A
global, web-based survey confirmed earlier
research that project managers encounter
transparency, optimization, and relationship
issues, and identified four additional ethical
issue types. Managers’ behavior in responding
to ethical issues varies by governance
structure, their willingness to resolve ethical
issues themselves, and the trust between
stakeholders. Higher levels of trust are found
in stakeholder-oriented governance, which
can reduce transaction costs. Implications for
practitioners and academics are discussed.
