Mary HladioGUEST
No one likes to hear, oh, we're putting that project that you've worked so hard on on the back burner because it may not ever come off the back burner because then strategy changes.

Franziska HöhneGUEST
Especially when it comes to adjusting organizational strategies, what happens, especially these days in Germany, is that we are hit by cost-cutting strategies or improvements in, yeah, I see Mary nodding, in our businesses.

Franziska HöhneGUEST
And if you have a project already running for a couple of years, or let's say a couple of months, and they are not aware of these organizational changes and the communication and the steering of these projects, if you don't have someone overseeing these things, there it gets complicated.

Franziska HöhneGUEST
And the red flags might be seen by the project teams and the project managers themselves.

Franziska HöhneGUEST
But I'm not really sure if that's escalated because you need to be quite bold as a project manager to raise your hand saying, you know what? I think my project does not really fit into our strategy.

Franziska HöhneGUEST
You need project managers being able to do what Mary described earlier, detecting are there red flags? How are people behaving? What's going on? You need someone being able to see does the scope align with the strategy and then proceed and help the company.

Mary HladioGUEST
What do we need to do to get to this next point? And it may be that we have to escalate beyond myself to someone else.
