2. Project success depends on proper scope management
q Scope is expectation and if expectation is not clear to
people there is no way to know what success looks like
q When projects fail, people lose confidence in coworkers
and the organization.

More frequently projects fail the more organization resistance increases:
q Senior stakeholder desire to back new projects decreases
q Willingness to get the best to work on projects: no one wants association
with failure
Scope sets both rational and emotional resource commitment
When projects succeed, organizations succeed

But I don’t want to go among mad people,” Alice remarked
“Oh, you can’t help that”, said the Cat: “we’re all mad here.
I’m mad. You’re mad.”
“How do you know I’m mad?” said Alice
“You must be,” said the Cat, “or you wouldn’t have come here.”
Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, by Lewis Carroll
