No, 1039 isn’t code for anything. And it actually came out as ten thirty-nine when spoken this morning by my little six year old daughter concerning getting some work done on the new house we are moving to soon. It was her way of saying let’s have more people work on it to get it done faster. It was in reference to my son saying that two of his friends wanted to help us put in some trim in the rooms around the flooring.
It was a great thought on her part…throw more people at it and get it done as soon as possible – mostly because she wants to play on the playground equipment that I’ve already built in the backyard. But let’s consider this concept a little further…let’s think of it in terms of the creative projects we manage on a daily basis. Is it a good idea? Is it a bad idea? What implications does it have for our projects in terms of personnel? In terms of cost? In terms of timeline? In terms of quality and risks?
