Abstract

The study explores the project portfolio management decision-making procedures under uncertain and dynamic settings by investigating adaptive strategies together with strategic resource distribution and leadership adaptability as drivers of portfolio achievement. The study investigates uncertainty factors while evaluating decision-influenced adaptive strategies and develops implementable suggestions for PPM managers. 235 Project and portfolio managers from the technology sector completed structured surveys that served as the basis for quantitative research data analysis. Descriptive statistics together with correlation and mediation comparisons and moderation testing allowed researchers to study key variable relationships in the analysis phase. The findings revealed that adaptive decision-making increases portfolio performance and organizational flexibility along with strategic resource allocation effectively declines uncertainty. Leadership adaptability has a substantial impact on how adaptive decision-making affects portfolio performance and market uncertainty raises the effectiveness of strategic resource allocation toward portfolio outcomes. The study recommends that organizations mend adaptive decision-making through augmented leadership adaptability and enriched strategic resource allocation with added real-time feedback systems. Scenario-based planning together with flexible decision-making systems allows organizations to handle uncertain situations and enhance portfolio stability.
