Commitment Curve!

When I started this little project I thought that it would be an easy thing to do.  People would be able to do some reflecting and writing a few pages shouldn't be a problem....  (I was so idealistic back then!)

Fast forward 3 months, I hosted 2 Webex calls where only a handful of people showed up, I had 5 people drop out of the project completely and due to a variety of other reasons I am still waiting on a few submissions. 

So, how do you get people to commit?  This was a self-selecting project where I put an idea out there and people self-selected to be a part of the project.    I am not sure that there is anything else that I could have done.   I just think that in a world of competing priorities The20Project fell off the list. 

So next time I put a project together like this maybe I should put some more structure around things?  Get people to sign a contract that outlines their responsibilities and also commit to attend conference calls?    Or maybe it is better this way.  I ended up with submissions from people who really wanted to be part of the project! 

Maybe this is how it is meant to be and the consultant in me is over analyzing things again  ;)
