What is The Project Whisperer?
Helping teams to recognize and embrace the human dynamics of the workplace.
"A project team acts as a living, breathing entity that undergoes a physical and emotional journey."
Stage 1: Shiny Happy People
Project is chartered
Team is being recruited
Optimism reigns
Stage 2: Confusion Sets In
Ambiguity breeds fear
Leadership wants plan
Stage 3: Valley of Despair
Throwing it over the wall
Interpersonal conflicts
Oh crap! moment
Stage 4: Blast-Off!
Time to deploy
Still complexity, unknowns
Team may be nervous, want to delay the project
Stage 5: Cruisin'
Initial rush and crush is over
Things start smoothing out
Stage 6: The Long Tail
The project is dragging on
Stage 7: Movin' On
Project fizzles out
No one feels recognized
No feeling of success
