Web Projects that Succeed
No one has ever come to us with a project they started with some other developer that failed in the Planning Stage. During planning, everyone is excited, and developers can say "yes" to every request, because no real work is being done. It's all just ideas floating in the collective imagination of everyone involved.
Unfortunately, there's no such thing as a "collective imagination." Inevitably, everyone imagines something slightly different from anyone else. Decisions made in a Planning Stage are always based on limited information and unrevealed assumptions.
This is what causes project to fail in the Execution Stage. Once work begins, the dreamers disengage, and naively expect that all their hopes will magically come true without any intervention on their part. Only when the developers come back with a disappointing delivery many weeks or months later does the client realize that the people involved were never speaking the same language. read more »
