Ask HN: How does your company handle late running projects?

I like this analogy. A lot of time leaders get in a tough 4th-down situation, where they must make a big play, and so they tell the players to make the big play. If the players fail, that's the players fault, the coach will yell at them and that's that; right? Well, no. If a coach acted like that they'd be fired, so why do we accept the same from our business leaders?

We don't. For instance throughout this thread, starting with the OP, there's a pretty clear consensus that it's management's fault.

Remember a lot of us are management ;)
