Project Paradigms -- Blog buddy Clarke Ching points to blog buddy David Anderson's new email signature...
"”A project is a problem scheduled for solution”, J.M. Juran ”A project is a collection of value scheduled for realization”, D.J. Anderson"
Sorry, guys, the latter is a cute turn of buzzwords, but the former is nice, clean, and simple English that says the same thing to me. A problem is nothing more than the collection of things blocking the attainment of some desired value, and a solution is the object of the realization effort, otherwise, why bother? Customers don't pay good money for just any old product that is realized. They buy/value solutions to their problems.
