1) Now do it the easy way: use the formula to figure out how many
lines of communication there are for seven (7) people.
__x (___ -1)
# lines for People = = (__ x __) / 2 = ___
2

2) Okay, let’s say you’ve added two (2) team members and two (2) more
stakeholders, so there are now eleven (11) people on the project team
who need to communicate with one another. How many lines did you
add? First figure out how many lines there are for eleven (11) people:
__x (___ -1)
# lines for People = = (__ x __) / 2 = ___
2

3) So how many lines were added when four (4) people joined the seven

Review each of the following situations and describe what actions


you would take:

1. You know that if you complete the lawn project early you will receive concert tickets for your favorite
band from the client. While finishing up the planting, your team informs you that although the
hedges are what is specified in the contract, they are not tall enough to provide the privacy the
customer needs. If the hedges need to be dug up and replanted the project will not be completed
early. What actions should you take?

2. You make a copy of a landscaping design from a magazine and include part of it in the landscape
design for the lawn project. You see that the design has a copyright notice. What is the best thing
to do?

3. Your landscaping company is in competition to win a major project for a large management
company that has over 50 properties in Phoenix. You are told that you must make a large donation
to a certain political party in order to be considered for the project. What is the best thing to do?

4. You provide an estimate for the lawn project to the client. He is unhappy with the estimate because
he thinks the price should be lower. He asks you to cut 20% from the project estimate. What do
you do?
