In this chapter, we present a case study of an administrative project manager in the academia . The project management role in this case requires strong educational and research background, as well as managerial capabilities, strategic, and global perspectives. Therefore, high-level management representative, a professor from the university, was the project supervisor, and Julie, who had extensive experience in project management, as well as familiarity with the wide context in which the project takes place, was assigned to be the project manager.

We demonstrate how, at the beginning of the project, Julie acted in line with the MERge model , without being aware of its ideas, and how, after being exposed to the MERge model, she adjusted and improved her managerial strategy by including the research component into the project leadership.
