While thelatter can be fun and interesting, typically they will not lead to extensive student and facultyexchanges – the ultimate performance metric.Our experience was one which began with strong and consistent signals by institutional andunit leaders.

Ultimately, a major part oftheir grade will depend upon their working relationship with their sponsor mentor(s).Project success often appears to be directly correlated with this vital relationship.

The class has several non-traditional students in their late 50’s and 60’s.These older students were more inclined to give as well as accept orders and direction. Theirstyle was more autocratic. The younger generation of students did not espouse this approach andresisted it. Their view was much more democratic and demanding an input on every decision.This generation gap was fascinating and accentuated the fact that project management is allabout people. The younger generation did not recognize this conflict for the generational clashthat it was, while the non-traditional
