Okay, okay, so maybe likening the Project Management Office (PMO) to the Empire hunting down the Rebel Alliance is perhaps a teensy bit combative. But it’s how I feel sometimes. Just don’t let my desire for a weak pun give you the wrong impression. Let me explain.

Corporate projects:

1) Plan for months
2) Say a lot of words without really saying anything at all
3) Realise you came out of your endless planning sessions with no plan
4) Abandon all process
5) Make up arbitrary deadline and requirements
6) Change requirements daily
7) Fail to deliver anything
8) Blame the engineers
9) Give yourself a bonus
