Are you too Soft? Most Project Manager and Business Analyst leaders are not consistently willing to make the tough and unpopular project-related decisions, even though their instincts warn them that they are not taking the most effective action. Witness examples of PM/BA actions (or inactions) that are indicative of too-soft behaviour. Will you recognize familiar behaviour? You do not have to be rude, insensitive, arrogant, or a bully to avoid being too soft. None of these attributes are acceptable ...ever!
