    Having been employed by a number of different companies I have seen different management styles. There has always been a recurring problem, however, and that is the problem of how to educate educating people who do not understand how to make accurate time estimstes for tasks delegated.

    For my Dept. I had a model of the processes and a list of what factors contributed to task times I also had external estimates from sub-contractors to show how long and at what cost the company would have to pay if it went outside to get the task done. However, there were still those who did not understand how long jobs can take to do. Any one else with similar experienes ?
