"If other org is not taking PM seriously, then following may be potential reasons:
They don't like the way PM communicates with them
They do not understand project goals
They do not understand requirements clearly
They are occupied with other high priority project
I think Project Manager did not prepare himself well before reaching out to org for resources.
He can use the following approach to get resources from a different org:
Good documentation: PM should capture the project"

"One challenge that I faced when working with sales was managing unrealistic expectations. As a developer, I often had to work with sales teams to define the scope and timeline for projects. However, it was not uncommon for the sales team to promise clients certain features or deliverables that were not feasible within the allotted time and budget.
To address this challenge, I learned to be proactive in clarifying the limitations and constraints of the project with the sales team, and to work wit"

"In one of the projects I managed, one team member was slipping each of his task's ETAs several times, citing different reasons, and communicating the delay after it already happened. The delay seemed disproportional to the reasons thereof. I first collected sufficient historical data to confirm that this was a pattern, and similar circumstances were faced by other team members, but they were managing to still keep their ETAs.
Then I had a talk with the person, and showed him the data. I also ex"

Which person gets indexed more on which skill is a time to time exercise depending on needs of the org, product charter and career aspirations of the person."

"If I had to deliver a product or feature in half (or less) of the initial timeline, here's what I would do:
Prioritize the features: I would prioritize the features that are essential for the product's functionality and customer value. I would focus on the must-have features and put the nice-to-have features on hold.
Reassess the resources: I would reassess the resources available and determine if additional resources are required to meet the new timeline. I would explore options such as h"
