• Projects are going to be more productive because:

• People: We will make more effective teams

• People: We will have better visibility over availability and progress

• People: Will be able to better organise and report their time

• The Great Pyramid took around 20 years to build but more efective teams they would have got:

• The SQUARE they wanted (Improve Project planning)

• In 15 years (More efficient PM)

• And they would not have upset the Israelites (Better communications)
