  "It’s fair to say that I’ve learned a lot about what gives Learning Design Projects the greatest chance of success. This is what still guides me when it comes to negotiating and setting up new projects; the things that enable me to do what I’m best at - creating learning environments that deliver for my clients. These are the things that, if I’d known them 30 years ago, would have made it easier to avoid the potential pitfalls that exist where organisations contract with designers of learning."
