Tom DeMarco

“Risk management is the explicit quantitative declaration of uncertainty. But in some corporate cultures, people aren’t allowed to be uncertain. They’re allowed to be wrong, but they can’t be uncertain. They are obliged to look their bosses and clients in the face and lie rather than show uncertainty about outcomes. Uncertainty is for wimps.”
