I was working on an important project in my last role when all of a sudden we lost two important members of the team to sickness. 19 We were seven days away from the project deadline and we were not allowed to extend it because that would impact other areas of the company. I decided to reassess our plan, I identified several technical areas of the project that could be outsource to online contractors. I gave a team member the task of finding us suitable contractor and issued them with a detailed brief to work too. I then asked which team members were prepared to dedicate an hour to the project in the evenings and three volunteered in addition to myself agreed. By remaining calm and responding positively to the unexpected setback, we were able to still get the project finished on time and to the expected standards.
