Justin Nevins's Profile

I have to admit a frustration with projects that peter off because there’s no one person near the helm who’s dedicated to defining and managing the group’s actions. It’s a Project Manager role, and if a group doesn’t choose and empower one person to take care of it, stuff simply won’t get done. Whether it’s deciding on a good night for dinner with friends or organizing the next board meeting, we all need a little help turning generic good ideas into real-world coordinates for action.

In more instances than we want to admit, tips not only won’t (and can’t) help us to improve; they will actively get in the way of fundamental improvement by obscuring the advice we need with the advice that we enjoy. And, the advice that’s easy to take is so rarely the advice that could really make a difference.
