My main craft is software engineering but I've occupied managing roles in the past, and even twice as the CEO of a small company. I am perfectly aware of the difficulties of managing projects and keeping clients happy. From my experience, what you are describing is something few founders are concerned about, because they understand and embrace risk. On the other hand middle-management is always trying to push their peons to predict the future and accept the liability. |

That's bad just middle management then though. It's also why I'm advocating against project managers who would typically/often/sometimes do what you describe here – if you have someone who doesn't actively contribute to the project influence (or dictate in the worst case) timelines, that's deemed to fail from the beginning.
