March 15, 2012

In truth, the situation is often much worse than I described. Usually it isn't just one elephant in the corner, there's a herd—a portfolio of projects. In fact, one of the most insidious problems of portfolio management is the failure to adequately verify that project plans are realistic. Because most R&D organizations lack a reliable verification capability, most portfolios end up in chaos—indeed, "the best laid (portfolio) plans of mice and men often go awry."
