In this episode of “The Project Shrink” I am talking to Jerry Manas. Jerry is an organizational architect and author of two books: “Napoleon on Project Management” and “Managing The Gray Areas”. We are talking about the “gray areas”.

Managing projects is all about finding balances, finding the right touch for the right occasion. Jerry has has identified 6 of these balances and calls them “gray areas”.

He answers the following questions:

  • How can one meet the needs of individuals and the needs of the organization?
  • How can you maintain a sense of order without compromising productivity?
  • How much can you trust the people on your team to do what they’re supposed to do?
