RESUMO:

The purpose of this thesis to verify if the use of the Life Cycle Canvas (LCC) visual project management model promotes the project teams engagement in the light of the Job Demands-Resources Theory (JD-R Theory). According to JD-R Theory, work demands are the main predictors of burnout syndrome and psychosomatic health problems. On the other hand, personal and job resources are the most important predictors of job satisfaction, motivation and engagement (Bakker & Demerouti, 2014). Considering that project teams have high demands, work under pressure, manage conflicts, deal with high stress levels and rely on various resources to achieve success, this study seeks to debate the thesis that the benefits provided by using the LCC visual project management model promote job resources that, in turn, promote project team engagement. Thus, an exploratory cross-sectional study was conducted through an electronic survey with a sample of 98 LCC certified professionals, considering a population of 125 people certified in the model until the time of data collection. The survey was conducted in June 2019 with the support of Google Forms and forwarded to respondents through a messaging app. Data were collected based on a questionnaire composed of 40 questions formulated from other instruments available in the literature to measure personal resources, job resources and the variables vigor, dedication and absorption of the job engagement construct used by JD-R Theory. A systematic literature review was also performed which mapped the personal and job resources related to JD-R Theory studied empirically in the literature. This mapping served as the basis for conducting empirical research. The collected data were quantitatively analyzed using descriptive statistics and Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results of the measurement model analyzes validated Hypothesis 1, pointing out that LCC promotes job resources: psychosocial colleague support, task clarity, performance feedback, professional development opportunities, and supervisory support. Within the personal resources inherent to the professionals certified in CCL, there were five resources: self-efficacy, self-esteem, hope, optimism and resilience. The analysis of the structural model pointed out that both the job resources promoted by the LCC and the personal resources inherent to certified professionals are mediators of work engagement regarding the vigor, dedication and absorption construct. These results validated the hypotheses defined in the research and point in line with the literature related to JD-R. Finally, it is noteworthy that the use of visual project management models, such as LCC, promotes job resources that can be decisive in team engagement and project success, as well as contributing to the improvement of individual and organizational performance.
