Sooooo true. Thanks for the reminder to all of us who rush to meet the deadline.
The bitterness of poor quality is compounded exponentialy when the project is also behind schedule and over budget. After 35 years in the public and private sectors, I can recall very few programs that failed to meet schedule or budget targets while delivering a quality product. Good leaders do not make excuses. They get the job done, on time, within budget and delivering a quality end result.
