Let me walk you a situation.
You are working on a project, where requirements are not clear. You work hard to build a module just to learn that it has got a number of change requests. This results in you missing your deadlines even while you overexert yourself while trying to meet the expectations of the client. The client starts screaming at you. You try to explain to your boss about this situation, but she says it is your fault, as you were not paying attention to the requirements while the client was explaining.
Sounds familiar, isn't it? In such a scenario, what would you do? Would you like to just keep pushing yourself and try to meet the expectations of the client? Or would you like to resolve the conflicts, so that you can deliver a good product? I always opt for the latter.
To handle such situation, I have developed a methodology which I call “The RHHHK methodology” (and I pronounce it as R Triple H K). It has 5 action points to handle such situations:
Raise your guards and try to diffuse
Hit first
Hit fast
Hit hard
Knock Out
If you practice this methodology, you can get benefited by it from day one itself.
