Well, my 15 minutes didn’t arrive. After all the excitement and taking time to prepare, my interviewers stood me up. I was left to do a Tweet-in on risk with a crowd of project management enthusiasts. I guess it was roughly what I expected: volleys of tweets on a range of subjects with very hard-to-follow threads and no time or space to give serious answers.
For example the guy who characterised it as, ‘analyse what you can, stare into the void and then take a wild-arsed guess,’ was not far off the mark, though I wouldn’t put it that way. But to deconstruct each of those three elements properly is quite beyond the capacity of Twitter.
Now I guess the idea is to swap URLs where more in-depth stuff can be found, but I don’t think that quite works, and clearly does not drive good, focussed debate. Of course cloudsofvagueness is just the place to do that. LOL.
Andy – on behalf of my co-hosts at PMChat, I apologize for the technical phone issues (user error) I had while trying to get you on the line yesterday. It was in no way an attempt to stand you up. The debate on PMChat always runs the gamut and there are views from all different perspectives. I know for a fact that you brought value to many of our followers and thank you for your time. I hope you will accept our apology and allow us to interview you another time soon.
