How much can we rely on the team some where down the road we had this feeling how would you address this
one way is to have open discussion and confront the team closing communication gap.
some time it is better just to let it go using withdrawal as not much can be done

Yup I had a project engineer not to be named, the client raid his room at site at 1000 and found him a sleep ... the client filmed him and sent me the movie. I lost all my face and nearly lost the contract.

I spoke with him a few months ago, and I told him you are a rich material for me to coach people "Don't Do". He is a bad example of project management practices and a good example of total failure.

I feel withdrawal will encourage them to let us down on even more occasions. The idea is to make them realise that what they have done is unacceptable. So, I feel we must show more resolve going about our jobs and show renewed interest in their jobs that will make them uncomfortable and come out of it. Of course, it may not be universally applicable but will help in certain instances.

Sante, this could be very true annoying statement as nowadays there is no concept of "the right man in a right place" you must wonder based on what those " ...." got the that high post job!
"The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man."
