project had a team and a budget, but the lack of decisions was stalling its progress Context A mobile project was in production. The team had audio people and the resources to ship the project. Audio was being delivered by different people, but without a single person owning the whole thing. The challenge The problem wasn&#8217;t sound quality or a lack of skill. The problem was the lack of decision-making: No one was making the final calls. Responsibility wasn&#8217;t clearly defined. The team had no coherent direction. The effects: Scattered work. No progress. Hard to evaluate the work. Wasted time and budget. My role I stepped into the project to define: Where the problem actually was. Who should be making the decisions. And what the direction for audio work should look like. What was done Assigning ownership of audio. Sorting out how decisions would be made. Defining the role of audio in the context of the whole project. Outcome Audio stopped being a set of scattered actions and started being managed as a coherent part of the project. The team gained: A clear direction. The ability to make decisions. And real progress instead of chaos. Takeaway If audio &#8222;is there&#8221; but doesn&#8217;t work, it&#8217;s usually not a quality problem. Audio without an owner always starts to drift. If you have a project where &#8222;everyone&#8217;s working on something&#8221; but nothing gets closed out, it&#8217;s not an execution problem.
