Andy Kaufman: People and Projects podcast

Andy Kaufman is the host of the People and Projects podcast and an expert on project management. He joins me in this conversation to explore how to influence a large number of stakeholders.

Quotes

If we’re honest here, there are some stakeholders that we don’t even want to involve … Even for the difficult people, we have to find a way to involve them. It helps manage their expectations, and it helps manage our expectations.
—Andy Kaufman

Hope is not a good strategy. Hope is a wonderful thing for mankind, but it’s a terrible thing for projects.
—Andy Kaufman

If I don’t sufficiently think through who I’m impacting, or who could impact us, I’m not going to manage their expectations.
—Andy Kaufman

I mistake keeping someone informed for keeping them satisfied.
—Andy Kaufman

Listen to the other person’s story so well that you can say it as well as them.
—Donny Ebenstein
