Project Management - Don't do that, Dear.

We've all heard about Best Practices - those techniques and behaviours that are good examples to follow. The other side of the coin gives us Worst Practices - techniques and behaviours to avoid. These are seldom documented as carefully or comprehensively.
But think back to childhood and how children learn to be good, effective and balanced people. The kindly admonition from a caring parent telling the child that some action is 'not nice'.
In the adult world these admonitions can be more extreme so it's a good idea to get an idea for oneself before someone else tells you. This article includes a few Worst Practices about managing a project that really highlight some recognisable behaviours.
