Deception in Project Management

– It Never Ends Well!

This is a compelling story of a sailor who dishonestly reported his progress during a round-the-world race. This cautionary tale serves as a reminder for project managers of the critical importance of honest reporting. By being transparent and addressing problems early on, we can harness the collective support of the entire team to tackle challenges effectively, rather than allowing issues to escalate until they become unmanageable. This story is being shared by our Senior Principal Engineer, Tom Kendall.
