Years ago in Nottingham

2012.02.01

Eons ago I was working on a project in Nottingham, UK. One of the guys from the plant stole, from one of their managers, and gave me a book called "Malice in Blunderland". This is not the book you'd find these days on Amazon but rather a collection of business "laws" like Peter's Law. Entertaining in a kind of scary way.

I listened to Episode 230 of The PMO Podcast entitled "George Costanza's Top 10 Tips for appearing to be a good Project Manager" which reminded me of those days in Nottingham. Give it a listen, it 12:17 long and worth your while.

What do you think? As always questions and comments are welcome.
