corporate communication

Programmer to Team Leader:
"We can't do this proposed project. **CAN NOT**. It will involve a majordesign change and no one in our team knows the design of this legacysystem.And above that, nobody in our company knows the language in which thisapplication has been written. So even if somebody wants to work on it,they can't. If you ask my personal opinion, the company should never takethese type of projects."
Team Leader to Project Manager :
"This project will involve a design change. Currently, we don't have anystaff who has experience in this type of work. Also, the language isunfamiliar to us, so we will have to arrange for some training if wetake this project. In my personal opinion, we are not ready to take on aproject of this nature."
Project Manager to 1st Level Manager :
"This project involves a design change in the system and we don't havemuch experience in that area. Also, not many people in our company areappropriately trained for it. In my personal opinion, we might be ableto do the project but we would need more time than usual to complete it."
1st Level Manager to Senior Level Manager :
"This project involves design re-engineering. We have some people whohave worked in this area and others who know the implementation language. Sothey can train other people. In my personal opinion we should take thisproject,but with caution."
Senior Level Manager to CEO :
"This project will demonstrate to the industry our capabilities inremodelling the design of a complete legacy system. We have all thenecessary skills and people to execute this project successfully. Somepeople have already given in house training in this area to other staffmembers. In my personal opinion, we should not let this project slip byus under any circumstances."
CEO to Client :
"This is the type of project in which our company specializes. We haveexecuted many projects of the same nature for many large clients. Trustme when I say that we are the most competent firm in the industry for doingthis kind of work. It is my personal opinion that we can execute thisproject successfully and well within the given time frame.
