** Programmer to Team Leader: **
“We CAN NOT do this proposed project. It will involve
a major design change and no one in our team knows the
design of this system. And above that, nobody in our
company knows the language in which this application
has been written. If you ask my personal opinion, the
company should never take these type of projects.” ![]()
** Team Leader to Project Manager: **
“This project will involve a design change. Currently,
we don’t have any staff who has experience in this
type of work. Also, the language is unfamiliar to us,
so we will have to arrange for some training if we
take this project. In my personal opinion, we are not
ready to take on a project of this nature.” ![]()
** Project Manager to 1st Level Manager: **
“This project involves a design change in the system
and we don’t have much experience in that area. Also,
not many people in our company are appropriately
trained for it. In my personal opinion, we would need
more time than usual to complete it.” ![]()
** 1st Level Manager to Senior Level Manager: **
“This project involves design re-engineering. We have
some people who have worked in this area and others
who know the implementation language. So they can
train other people. In my personal opinion we should
take this project, but with caution.” ![]()
** Senior Level Manager to CEO: **
“This project will demonstrate to the industry our
capabilities in remodeling the design of a complete
legacy system. We have all the necessary skills and
people to execute this project successfully. Some
people have already given in house training in this
area to other staff members. In my personal opinion,
we should not let this project slip by us under any circumstances.” :k:
** CEO to Client: **
“This is the type of project in which our company
specializes. We have executed many projects of the
same nature for many large clients. Trust me when I
say that we are the most competent firm in the
industry for doing this kind of work. It is my
personal opinion that we can execute this project
successfully and well within the given time frame.” ![]()
