Zusammenfassung: 
The main aim of this study is to gain insights into project management professionals' perception of how project success can be achieved. The Q-methodology was followed in this research. Based on an extensive literature review and validation through expert judgment, a framework consisting of 33 factors increasing the likelihood of success was developed. A total of 34 practitioners in three different sectors (real estate, urban development, and infrastructure) in the Netherlands were asked to rank the statements contributing to the success of their projects. Four different perspectives of how project success can be achieved were distinguished in this study: "seeking the best match", "being adaptive and open", "keeping the team focused", and "preparing for opportunities". The perception of different practitioners of how success can be obtained may stem from factors of project context rather than sector and complexity. This highlights further research opportunities in taking a contingent approach when investigating project performance. The study helps to grasp the subjectivity of practitioners' viewpoints regarding the potential ways to enhance project performance by understanding the similarity and differences of these viewpoints.
