What projects might this have applied to ?

Question

Yahoo questioner :
"Is there a link between projects going bad and someone on board who has a bad attitude and is a bully?"
Yahoo answerer :
"Yes, there is. And that somebody is usually somewhere in the management chain. (And it doesn't hurt if they aren't too bright)Doug Source(s):Lots of years with lots of high-tech and aerospace companies."

Answer 1

Well.......... Since that was my answer I guess I should answer the follow-on.
It applies (to some extent) to every project that's ever been done that has had more than 2 or 3 people involved in it.

In fact...... I have a theory that here exists in Nature a force (very much like the four we know about) whose sole purpose in the Universe is to screw up all projects. However..... Screwing up all projects is, in and of itself, a fairly large project and this force sometimes gets in it's own way and steps on its own dick.
And -that- is the only reason that some projects ever get completed.
