Great vision, poor management

Pros

Great vision of providing the Bible to those languages that don't have them. Most staff are extremely committed to this goal.

Cons

Management are untrained in management, and full of unrealistic ideas. Very little teamwork. There is no project management of language projects and the only the language projects that are going well get any management support. Those that start going south will get less support and the language team hung out to dry.
