If you have a boss. Or if you are a boss. ​ You know what moves your ass, right? ​ You know it perfectly. ​ “No trouble”. That’s it. ​ So sad, and so true. ​ “Don’t bother me. Don’t put me in trouble. Over average results, but not too much, otherwise, I don’t know what objectives, bonuses, etc. discuss with you… My biggest fear?

You’re parachuted in projects and they expect you to know everything. Little training. Almost no mentoring. You get your head over the water or you sink. What if I told you that there is a place where You’ll understand how a PPP is structured Who makes money When Why And how to avoid being the one who loses Yeah… Unfiltered opinion about How money...
It’s surprising human’s resistance to change. A clause. A clause destined to fail. And it did. Problems. Disputes. Relationships destroyed. Delays. Claims. And you know what… They repeat in the next project… Even if it is evident that the clause will generate issues. Too much grey. Sometimes this grey has advantages within a group of reasonable and experienced people. But unfortunately, common sense is uncommon. I explained the issue. Everybody nodded. And of course… the clause remained…...
