What has been your most painful moment as a project manager?
Great salesman. Superstar. Sold our service to a company larger than we could provide to.
Having to move a long term project manager from a major program because he wasn't pulling his weight on the team.

Having to speak to another project manager about inappropriate team behavior.

I look forward to learn such recipes of success of Project Pain Reliever.

Most painful? Being told by leadership during a crisis "we don't have time to plan! Just do it!"
And then having everyone on my team look at me with a confused look and getting text messages like "sounds great but what does he want me to actually do?"

Can't wait to win my signed copy of this great book!
Stakeholders who don't know what they want but want it exactly the way they want it make things painful

Looking forward to grab a copy of this book which hopefully will addresses my day to day "pains" in managing complex projects

Most painful moment was when after so much planning the sponsor decided to abort with no reasonable explanation. Even a month worth of planning is time that could have been dedicated to other projects.

What has been your most painful moment as a project manager? - After having invested so much time and energy into a project and finding out it is being pulled.
Ronald Smith

My most painful moment was when after an 18 month project that improved a legacy product, the company decided to discontinue that product line.

The most painful moment was dealing with a team member who sabotage the project on purpose.

The book title grabs you in wanting to read it as an aid to finding suggestions to relieving painful project moments.

The most painful moment for me as a project manager is being given a project in mid swing with little guidance. Ouch!

Having a great team working tenaciously to exceed requirements and timeline only to have the budget cut and the project cancelled.
Charles Proviano
Senior Project Manager| High Availability Inc.

Walking away from a project wondering if the the technology that was implemented will ever be used to its full potential.
Hmmm.... looks interesting, maybe as a gift to some colleague that is not a PMP....

The most painful point for any manager is to address and resolve the conflicts between the team members in the project.

Most painful moment is when project becomes operational and no one takes over.
