Originally posted by StanThe article presupposes that the "IT Workers" can control whether the project is on time or not. I've been on a few projects where we have always been on time but the requirements from the customer change during the course so the original estimate is no longer relevant.
And as for the original survey question, if you asked me whether I'd suffer if my project came in late, I'd have to say no; but that doesn't mean that I'm feckless and irresponsible, and that the project will indeed be late because I have no incentive to bring it in on time. I would be in trouble if my work were late, but not if the whole project were. My work is not the whole project.
So blame it on the managers, or on the consultancies. Don't blame it on the IT knowledge workers.God made men. Sam Colt made them equal.Comment
