'The other thing about project management that is really important is being a good communicator, a vital thing is to express yourself intelligently and make presentations and run team meetings and write progress reports. Some people are hopeless at all that. Yes, I need to give the project management thing some thought..it's on the agenda for the steering group meeting tomorrow so if it gets the goahead no doubt I'll need to do something. First I thought well, just go to Coopers or one of these companies because they will have good quality people, the only thing there is they're very expensive. ... The trouble is you never really know until you've got them in and they've been working with you for a few weeks, that's the problem. At least when you're dealing with a contractor if you don't like someone, you can get rid of them. If you recruit somebody at that level, you're stuck with them. ... No, I'm not looking forward to it. Although on the other hand I think I need it and I'd sleep a bit easier I think, if they're good, you know.'X041 page 004.04a (tape 02.2.03a) Gordan Notes/Tape 14/06/94
