Columnist William T. Kelly advice can be summarized as engage with your project team and remember that your mood is contagious. While the advice may not appear to be radical, nonetheless it is different from the usual project behavior. So, you might ask, "How do we avoid the cursed project?" I suggest it's much of the same advice: Stay close to your team; Give them what they need; Make unconditionally constructive assessments; Keep the story (context) of the project alive; and Learn from the people performing the project through ongoing planning with them. Too many projects become cursed...in my opinion, only due to neglect. posted by Hal at 11:18 AM \| link \| \| \| Google It! \| Email This \| Visit the Archives for more postings	Blogroll Me!
