Most projects don’t fail because people are dumb. They fail because truth gets negotiated—by well‑meaning “process people,” risk teams, procurement weirdness, and internal deference.
This space is the opposite: clear, direct, practical, and allergic to corporate fog.
Around here, “project management” is not a hero cape or a dashboard factory. It is the unglamorous work of naming reality early, saying the hard thing in the room, and protecting delivery from politics, vanity metrics, and process theater. Expect sharp questions, plain language, and bias for action over artifacts. If you want slide‑decks to defend, this probably is not your place. If you want outcomes shipped, trade the checklist comfort blanket for conviction, focus, and a team willing to call BS when it matters most.
If that sounds like the kind of long-term, success-oriented community you want to be part of, join us—lurkers welcome, participants encouraged.
