Are project managers the gift of God for us?

 Until it closed at 3 years, I was part of an expert group on project management which around 5,000 + Danish project leaders were free to ask about anything in their projects. Free it should be noted - and the answers we gave in 24 hours.

How many took advantage of this tibud? 11!

Since we know that the majority of all projects go wrong in one way or another (see eg here), I ask whether this is because the project leaders:

• thinks nobody can do it better than themselves?
• are hopeless optimists or reckless?
• believes that the project management is unnecessary, as long as you are technical strong?
• not have time to think just a little forward?
• stupid?

- Well, yes, sorry I asked ...
