>>This week: "Think Outside the Box."

I had a minor triumph at work this year. We are now (all 600+ of us) more or less agreed that all are forbidden from even TALKING about "thinking outside the box" until they have demonstrated that they KNOW WHERE THE BOX IS IN THE FIRST PLACE.

This has made things run much more smoothly. You have to manage at least one project and actually FOLLOW our current processes before you can start recommending that we throw everything out and adopt your new process.
