Jeff’s journal: project work on the inside

While the journal is almost exactly as Jeff wrote it, in addition to naming it “Jeff’s journal” (which didn’t require much imagination and is alliterative), and giving it the subtitle “project work on the inside” to fit my theme of going inside work, I’ve changed the names of the organizations he writes about. I’ve also organized his material into sections, with headings, and numbered his diagrams, so it is easier to find them when I refer to them later. In one or two places, I’ve inserted words or phrases that I use, which have the same meaning as his. My additions are in square brackets. One example is Jeff’s “management view” and “project team view,” which I call the “view from the top” and the “view from practice.” I’ve used the same convention for notes. As you might expect, Jeff had no references, except for a definition or two or an idea that he looked up online. As his journal now has both a different purpose and audience, I’ve turned these into endnotes and have included additional references where it seemed appropriate to do so.
