25th September 2023 Monday - project management

 A client once asked me, as we were seated next to each other at a site meeting - what is the most difficult thing about project management? What prompted the question was likely the slightly raised voices across the table - the engineer is unable (or reluctant) to provide a straightforward answer regarding his details to the builder. They are still conversing in English, and seated. When the discussion migrates to Hokkien, (this is in Penang) it is getting serious. Right at that moment, they start arguing in Hokkien, both walk to the white board to continue their argument, supplemented with red and blue markers. 

I turn to her and said 'managing the team'.
