Hello everyone, While traveling back home today, I saw on Netflix an ad about the Fyre Festival documentary… such a mess and a real example of how to do everything wrong in terms of project management! I remember recording a podcast about it. If you have a couple of minutes, you must listen to it here: https://ricardo-vargas.com/podcasts/3-key-lessons-from-the-fyre-festival-documentary-on-netflix/. Some quick reflections: - Projects are never a simple task. - On paper, things seem much easier than they are in reality. - As Warren Buffer said: there is no good deal with someone that is not good. There is no way you can collaborate with someone that does not have good intentions. - Chaos and entropy are part of everything you do. If you do not manage well, everything will go wrong. Do you have anything to add? 🤔 Ricardo #ProjectManagement #LessonsLearned #FyreFestival #Leadership #RiskManagement
