It can be frustrating when a project is moving too slowly, especially when it’s for reasons you can’t control.
Maybe every step forward is mired in the ball of mud your teams created before they discovered deliberate architecture. Maybe your project is in dire need of a program manager or a technical writer, but there isn’t going to be one available any time soon. Or, maybe the road ahead would be clear if it wasn’t for that one person who won’t commit to a direction, who seems to be withholding information, or who just seems to hate their job (or you?) and won’t let you schedule a meeting with them.
