Think your project’s on fire? 🔥 Come hear how Maine tried to swap a 30‑year‑old COBOL HR/payroll system for something cloud‑friendly … and wound up with six years, two vendors, and ± $35 M spent—with no live system to show for it. (Psst—Love this kind of real‑world PM talk? Join our member community for templates, monthly problem‑solving Happy Hours with us, and coaching: PMHappyHour.com/membership.)   👋 Your Hosts Kim Essendrup – PM coach, speaker, project‑failure super‑fan Kate Anderson – coffee‑powered realist & co‑host of Project Management Happy Hour   What We Cover Why Maine’s 2016 “$15 M, 2‑year” vision looked reasonable on paper Vendor #1: Infor hired for $13.5 M … then fired after two years with nothing working Vendor #2: Workday lands a $15 M deal—hope (briefly) restored 2019–2020 red flags: missing staff, test cycles where 50 % of paychecks were wrong, “rosy” status decks Feb 2021: Maine’s 30‑day ultimatum & $22.16 M demand letter to Workday (spoiler: lawyers ensue) Project culture bombs: 400 % team turnover, a toxic manager, and a “rescue PM” married to the sponsor Independent audit slide‑deck gold: zero items “ready for go‑live,” chaotic configs, no data owner Accenture steps in (another $10.9 M) while employees still depend on the 1980s mainframe   5 Brutal Lessons You Can Use Tomorrow 1) Write it down or write a check – fuzzy requirements = infinite rework. 2) Freeze configs, then test – moving targets make every cycle worthless. 3) Own the data – bad source data means bad payroll, period. 4) Toxic leadership kills progress – harassment & turnover wipe out continuity. 5) Audit early, not post‑mortem – an external sanity check at first failure could have saved millions.   You Might Be in Trouble If … Your payroll test run is half wrong but the go‑live date stays. A core requirement (e.g., labor‑cost distribution) is “coming later”—after all testing. Status decks stay green while teammates are crying in their cars. The new “fix‑it” PM just happens to be married to the exec in charge. Nobody can explain entrance‑/exit‑criteria, yet QA keeps restarting. Ad‑hoc reports only work if you strip every security role. Steering committee = five‑minute victory lap + fifty‑five minutes of blame ping‑pong. Backup plan is still “keep the COBOL mainframe running indefinitely.”   If any of those hit home, open your RAID log—now—before your $15 M idea turns into headline fuel.   Why listen? Rolling out HRIS, ERP, or Workday? Spot the landmines first. Tired of sanitized “success stories”? We tell it like it is—with a dash of salt. Exec or sponsor?

Growing up in a figurative fish bowl in a small town in Texas, Chelsea Reeves had no idea what the world had in store for her beyond a bubble-wrapped life of what she describes as privilege. By the time she got to college, it didn’t take long before Chelsea realized the world she grew up in was much different than what her peers and others around her had experienced. With undiagnosed learning disabilities and a back injury that took her out of sports, Chelsea found herself spiraling during her senior year. As her life bottomed out, she began wrestling with big life questions and a demolished sense of identity. Her tenacious commitment to recovery and healing paid off as she finally uncovered her calling, after unhooking herself from the pressure of being what she thought she should be. Today, Chelsea sits down with Joanna to share how she overcame much difficulty and what she is now doing today to help others who struggle in ways that she herself used to. Tune in for an inspiring and hope-filled message. Chelsea’s Resources:@Theresurfacegroup @chelsea_lmft https://www.resurfacegroup.com/Connect with Joanna Lilley  Therapeutic Consulting AssociationLilley Consulting WebsiteLilley Consulting on Facebook Lilley Consulting on YouTubeEmail joanna@lilleyconsulting.com#TherapeuticConsulting #LilleyConsulting #Successful #YoungAdults #TherapeuticPrograms #Therapy #MentalHealthMatters #Podcast #PodcastCommunity #StudentMentalHealth #TheJourney #SuccessIsSubjectivePodcast #TheUnpavedRoad #PFCAudioVideo #PainRelief #Addiction #AddictionRecovery #SobrietyJourney #SelfEsteem
