Project - Team Work

[Guest guest]

Programmer to Team Leader:

 

"We CAN NOT do this proposed project. It will involve a major

design change and no one in our team knows the design of this

system. And above that, nobody in our company knows the

language in which this application has been written. If you

ask my personal opinion, the company should never take these

type of projects."

 

Team Leader to Project Manager:

 

"This project will involve a design change. Currently, we

don't have any staff who has experience in this type of work.

Also, the language is unfamiliar to us, so we will have to

arrange for some training if we take this project. In my

personal opinion, we are not ready to take on a project of

this nature."

 

Project Manager to 1st Level Manager:

 

"This project involves a design change in the system and we

don't have much experience in that area. Also, not many

people in our company are appropriately trained for it. In

my personal opinion, we would need more time than usual to

complete it."

 

1st Level Manager to Senior Level Manager:

 

"This project involves design re-engineering. We have some

people who have worked in this area and others who know the

implementation language. So they can train other people. In

my personal opinion we should take this project, but with

caution."

 

Senior Level Manager to CEO:

 

"This project will demonstrate to the industry our cap-

abilities in remodeling the design of a complete legacy

system. We have all the necessary skills and people to

execute this project successfully. Some people have

already given in house training in this area to other

staff members. In my personal opinion, we should not

let this project slip by us under any circumstances."

 

CEO to Client:

 

"This is the type of project in which our company specializes.

We have executed many projects of the same nature for many

large clients. Trust me when I say that we are the most com-

petent firm in the industry for doing this kind of work. It

is my personal opinion that we can execute this project

successfully and well within the given time frame."
