The Smooth Project Manager

I have just read an excellent article: 10 signs that your project is about to be cut, and I have to say I enjoyed reading it, mainly because it relates to current crisis.

Mainly the signs that your project is about to get axed are the following:

1. Project sponsors and stakeholders disappear
2. Changes in management are rolled out
3. Money woes abound
4. Your project is a “black hole”
5. Management keeps discussing project cancellation
6. Your project becomes a tool of office politics
7. Poor leadership casts a shadow on the project
8. The project is successful, but the product fails
9. Your project has low visibility
10. It truly is a bad project

In most of the cases I’ve seen, #10 was the culprit. How about you?
