<description><![CDATA[Brian is great at what he does. Brian is your controller-he manages all of the accounting for your small business. He keeps all of the company's expenses properly documented, finds all of the tax deductions, manages payroll, pays all the bills, negotiates for better rates on the company's health plans, and keeps a sharp eye on all of your accounts receivable. He's an all-star employee.So what would you do if Brian was in a car accident and couldn't come to work any longer? What if Brian jumps ship and leaves for greener pastures without giving you any prior notice? How would you get someone to fill his shoes in his absence?<br/><br/>10 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[My background is primarily in software development and like most modern forms of work it's very much a project-driven field. Software developers are notorious for always delivering their projects late and over budget. Why? Because project managers don't fully scope out all of the tasks that must be done, and then they assign arbitrary times to their list of vague overly broad parts of the project. I use two techniques to solve these problems: I use a mind map to identify all of the tasks and then a project chart (Gantt chart) to assign how long each task will take.<br/><br/>7 Vote(s) ]]></description>
