The layoffs will continue until morale improves!

One of these is from the 70s, the other is so modern. Love it

No way they have the courage to do WPP wide layoffs. It would always be opco. This is going to be a failed morale booster: RTO is great and you’ll love it; we are winning new business!; we have hired new senior people; etc.

Bingo.

It's just to cover RTO. "We're so excited to see everyone next week and all the amazing collaboration" blah blah blah for 50 minutes

When a new type of project comes in and you get assigned as the PM to “figure out” the project plan, how do you go about resource allocation? Sometimes I struggle to know what the team configuration should even be, because we’ve never done said project type before. It’s hard to know what type of people should be assigned, and at what % time, when there isn’t a preexisting process or work breakdown structure for the deliverables I’m being handed to “manage.” How do/would you handle?
