In the last episode I have mentioned how important negotiations become in maintaining a Death March project. Today we're focussing on another aspect: How to gather the right people in your project? Especially in Death March projects your surrounding team mates might become the only persons you see for a very long time. Insist on having the right persons in your team. Expect overtime hours, but remember always that you've a long way to go. And at the very end you should have enough power to sprint for the last 100 meters. Taking care for people is an essential part to be successful in running projects. For Death March projects however it is an absolute must to do it. Besides all technical knowledge, besides all negotiations, you need to have loyal, cohesive, and cooperative team with you. In this episode I will highlight some essentials when working with people in critical projects.
