A good topic is relating soft skills of team members with productivity and project success. By analyzing that relation, you can propose how to arrange teams with more probability of success in achieving the project results.

To check for a good topic for your research, I suggest you do the following:

1. Choose a number of peer-reviewed research papers related to, say, Project Management from Google Scholar or similar websites, not from any other source such as Google, etc.

2. Read these research papers and check for the research gaps from within such research. You may find these gaps under the subtitle, Future Research or similar subtitles.

3. Make sure that such gaps are not covered by recent research. That is, for the gap that you want to cover, read to the last current research in this regard to make sure that no other author(s) already conducted such research.

4. Then, go ahead and start preparing for your research, preferably using the Literature Review Matrix where you put a table showing authors, title, objectives, problem statement, variables, methodology used, findings, etc. for each research paper selected. By the way, you may want to keep such relevant research papers to use them as references in your research.

Organizations continue to change how they approach problem-solving and accomplish work in the wake of shifting demographics, globalization, and the quickening of information and communication technology. Project teams, be they face-to-face or virtual, may be best equipped to meet challenges and reap opportunities. Intriguingly, in the 2020 Pulse of the Profession® report available at https://www.pmi.org/learning/thought-leadership/pulse/pulse-of-the-profession-2020, the Project Management Institute referred to the "The Project Economy" and advertised that as a fundamental paradigm shift for organizations. In a word, "The Project Economy" involves addressing most major issues that an organizations confronts through projects, which entails developing a culture that values project management. Any study on "The Project Economy" would have extensive and topical ramifications for theory, practice, and follow-up research. The article hyperlinked below may be of related interest.

Interesting question Dr. Amani Abu Rumman , you may explore project management and technology. Below is a guide article;

Article Role of technology in project manager performance model

Hi Dr. Amani Abu Rumman mani Ab Rumman; you asked about the main top research topics in project management. You've already received many tips from Aref Wazwaz . Project Management is a core issue for our university (@Erasmus Hochschule Basel). Especially in the current times, customer orientation, speed and quality are more and more important. Agile project management and organizations are on the focus. Conventional project management must not be forgotten. There are many negative examples in the planning and construction of infrastructure (airports, bridges, concert halls, etc.). In my opinion, agile project management has a great future for service and product developments (e.g. software development). There are currently many barriers and obstacles in the design. Hybrid project management is very often introduced as a compromise.

Hi Amani,

my colleagues and I edited a book that offers a new perspective on project management. I hope that you will find it useful in answering your question.
