“The period of the disintegration of the European Union has begun. And the first vessel to have departed is Britain” -
I used to be a project hero until I realised that well run projects don't need heroes.
So that's how I run my projects (or my part of the project) these days."I can put any old tat in my sig, put quotes around it and attribute to someone of whom I've heard, to make it sound true."

I've learnt not to try and be the project hero by burning my fingers a few times.
My foremost responsibility is to maximise profit for MyLtd. Co. and to that end, I stick to my deliverables precisely.
However, I do occasionally make a show of (this has to be well timed) going over and beyond but that is only as a marketing tactic for the expertise MyLtd. Co. has to offer rather than any desire to be the project hero.Comment

But with that I do feel like a spectator to untrained wannabe pioneers on a continuous insistence of re-inventing the wheel and self-congratulations can be patronising at time tooComment
