Two of the most frightening words a Project Manager can hear:
"Matrixed organization."
While the concept of assigning members of one team to support a project is fine on paper, too often organizations confuse "matrixing" (assigning a person full time to support another organizational element's objectives) with "jam more crap down people's throat while taking no organizational accountability for the successful completion of the project."
Frankly, if matrixing an organization were such a good idea, don't you think combat units would give it a go?
