Pragmatic Development Management Strategy

Account Manager - "When will this feature (not component, not task, but complete feature) be done?"

Developer - "In 2 hours."

Account Manager - "OK, so you'll be able to demo it to the client tomorrow?"

Developer (stammering) - "Well... umm... I've got a hair appointment and, ummm..."

Account Manager- "When will you be able to demo it to the client?"

Developer - "Well... by demo it to the client do you mean I will be doing the demo?"

Account Manager- "When will you be able to demo it to the client?"

Developer - "I should have it done in three weeks."
