> [!tldr] Red flags that a [[Defining Project|project]] is going south This note is modeled around [[4 Horsemen of Death]] and [[4 Horsemen of Divorce]]. If you're working a project and you notice any of these, that's a ==🔴red flag==. 1. [[Know what "done" looks like.|Lack of clarity and consensus on what "done" looks like]] - including scope creep 2. Lack of clarity on [[Responsibility Assignment Matrix|Roles and Responsibilities]] 3. The unsolvable issue that keeps not getting done - a dependency or technical hurdle or particularly nasty task that never seems to clear 4. Necessary resources disengaging or competing priorities & commitments creeping in If you see those, start looking for fixes or ask yourself if the project needs reevaluated. **** # More ## Source - self
