If this has happen to you, how did you handle it?
A project you designed and had to manage is handed to someone else who is veering it away from the original design

Kwiyuh,
Consider being in the shoes of your replacement and the sponsor. What would you do, what would the sponsor or customer expect? Change!
If everything stayed as it was, why did the replacement happen?
This triggered my thinking....
Thanks Sir

Kwiyuh Michael Wepngong I would first try to understand the reasons behind the changes. Maybe there are new constraints or priorities that I'm not aware of. Then, I'd schedule a meeting with the new project manager to share my original design and discuss my concerns. If the changes are truly detrimental to the project's success, I would try to collaboratively find a solution that respects both the original vision and the current realities. Ultimately, it's about ensuring the best possible outcome for the project, even if it means adjusting my initial plan.
