Many of us work in an environment that is project or task based and the workload is generally project after project, task after task and deadline after deadline. Sometimes the project is interesting, meaningful and will add value to our careers and other times the project is not, but without a doubt we will run into a variety of barriers that can prevent the successful completion of a project.
Laying Down has surveyed over five-hundred employees and identified twenty-one universal reasons why projects fail in an organizational environment. Laying Down reintroduces some classic productivity models such as the learning curve, procrastination and the punctuated equilibrium model and presents some new models such as the bureaucracy, fantasy land, constant state, implementation and the priority model. No matter how much logic we apply and no matter how much coaxing and cajoling of coworkers a project’s demise is inevitable because of fundamental flaws in the project productivity environment. Laying Down has identified these flaws and has graphically developed a collection of “project awrying” scenarios in a real-world, droll and thought provoking manner.
Laying Down invites you to visit us and download our free poster, which will enable one to pinpoint why projects fail and can be used as a management tool to enlighten coworkers to the faults of a project.
