From: Quotes batch 19


Concept

“The project is a path, not just a destination. The concept of ‘done’ is a temporary marker in a continuous stream of change.” (p. 15)

Behavior

“Managing a project requires ‘beginner’s mind’—the ability to act without being blinded by your own expectations of how things should go.” (p. 42)

Game Theory

“Collaboration is not a compromise; it is the alignment of individual intentions toward a shared, mindful outcome.” (p. 88)

Cognition

“Conflict in a team often arises because we confuse our mental models of the project with the project itself.” (p. 114)

Memory

“Post-project reviews are not for blame; they are for transforming the memory of past errors into present wisdom.” (p. 165)
