The conflicts raised by this case are typical from projects that are not closely monitored, resulting in a lack of overall control of tasks. Better reading and quicker response would probably avoid the failure of the partnership. Improvement in the organizational side is needed in order to embrace new technologies, as well as the leadership behavior of the project manager. Negotiation and development of new agreements on how to handle future conflicts, re-evaluation of the tasks required, tracking process on a daily basis and scheduling overtime could help to put the project back in time. A clearly defined escalation process, rethink the tasks allocation to future milestones and co-locating teams with similar activities would help the project
Proposed 3 questions to ask: “..what the discourse is about, why is it needed, and what it should accomplish.” (106). Asking what the discourse is about (fact & definition) is diving into what the central problem or issue is it can take a broad scope, and lead to the individual issues. Why is the discourse needed?

Who: Who is involved? What: What do I want to accomplish? Where: Identify a location When: Establish a timeframe Which: Identify requirements and constraints Why: Specific reasons, purpose or benefits of accomplishing the goal.

This method breaks the project down into sections and is known for making use of resources more efficiently. This method can be used to develop sections of the software and allow for testing to be done in phases instead of all at once. This method could produce a quicker turnaround time for a final product because it allows for different groups to work on different sections at the same time and then integrate them together once all sections have passed their testing phases. This method also has the possibility of increasing customer satisfaction because it allows for a more thorough understanding of the different sections in the software. As a result enhancements can be added or removed as
During your testimony, you may be asked to identify an exhibit dealing with the result of the altercation. It is important that you be prepared for your testimony. Not being prepared may make the judge think that you are making up your evidence as you go along. Similarly, major inconsistencies in evidence will tell against your credibility. On the other hand, minor inconsistencies may be hallmarks of truth, since people will often see things differently, even when describing the same event.
All of this is easily learned and understood, but when you begin to learn when to use comas, colons, and semi-colons, that is when the work becomes difficult. The boring subjects are the last issues that I have with the essays we are assigned in English classes. The subjects are almost always on some novel or a person we have read about in history.
