Jan 15, 2021 at 20:43 comment added Benjamin Steinberg If course if the group algebra were not semisimple you would not have an isotypic decomposition. But if you had some semisimple ring of R-endomorphisms you could use the isotypic decomposition from that one.
Jan 15, 2021 at 20:41 comment added Benjamin Steinberg The fact that the isotypic components are preserved doesn't really need the projection. One way to define the isotypic component of a simple module S is as the sum of all submodules isomorphic to S. By Schur's lemma the image of a copy of S under an endomorphism is either 0 or another copy of S. So endomorphisms preserve isotypic components. Since R acts by endomorphisms of M wrt the G action it preserves the G-isotypic component
