Already at the very beginning of this podcast, in episode 5 I have
talked about projects in problems. In this former episode I have
talked about the warning signs if your project runs into trouble.
Everybody of us has some kind of understanding the term "Death
March". It's from the military indicating a task you have a good
chance to not stay alive. And the same could be, if you take
projects in civil life in which the project members are working
13-14 hours each day, 6-7 days per week, for months. There is a
good chance to lose people. But there's also a good chance to fail
the project itself. I wanted to explain how exactly a "Death March"
project looks like. How you can identify it. And what general
decision you have to make if you face a Death March project. Due to
the bare amount of information I have to split this topic into two
episodes. In the second one you will finally get a general guidance
how to tackle "Death March" projects.
