Do the projects you manage have a name?

I can give you an example. For a project to scale up a few processes, we name it PEGASUS. It stood for Project to Enable a General Alignment of Scale-Up Systems. Creativity is a must to be able to find an acronym that summarizes what the project is about and yet has a catchy name.

Hi Luis,

In some cases, the customer's name is added directly to the project name.

hello - all of my projects are named. They are simply named after the name of the location that we are working. Numbers definitly don't work for me for project names, unless it's being referred to as an example "Phase 2".

For a while I worked on a project that the team started referring to as "The Project From Hell".
While it was the project from hell, I encouraged the team to remove that from our vernacular - as it reinforced the negativity that we were experiencing ...

I agree with Mr. Deven Patel that every project has scope .. so the name can be generated from the domain of the projects...

also there some sponsors on the delivery stage naming the products

so this became for us as a learned lesson to generate only sequenced code or share the issue with the client to select name

one more thing even that the marketing and seals team should be involved because they have their magic on selecting names believe me hahaha

Thanks
Adeil

LOL. I used a couple of very old, very simple tricks. If they asked my a question about The Project From Hell, I'd tell them I didn't know what they were referring to.

And when I overhead them talking to others about The Project From Hell, I'd interrupt them and correct them by saying "you're really referring to the XYZ project, correct? Just for clarify for the listerner".

At the end of the project as we were presenting final documentation to our internal team I did acknowledge that it was The Project From Hell ... in that way, I was able to credit them for the crazy amounts of effort, stress and recognize how difficult the project was. Regards, Melissa
