When a project goes awry, the reaction is often to reassign tasks to someone else.
Different people = different results, right?
The decision to bring in a different team or team member is often made with good intention, but the problem I see most bosses make is they eject those they are replacing from the project completely.
When you remove those who have intention and care for a project, but who just missed the target, you also put an end to the opportunity for them to learn and grow and be better on the next project they are part of.
For the sake of future projects, never eject team members, especially if it’s a project they care to learn from those who they are replaced by.
Stay Positive & Let Them Learn (If They Are Willing)
