In this interview, Martin Dowsett (https://www.linkedin.com/in/martin-dowsett-a0143225/) tells us how he uses checklists to make sure small but important things don't get forgotten.

He also tells us how he brought a project that was over budget back on track, and how he created and used a set of guiding principles to keep it there.
