At a department meeting yesterday my new boss mentioned three factors associated with success when a group or individual takes on a new project:

• experience - knowledge of the subject from having done it in the past
• engagement - involvement, including emotional attachment to the task (see employee engagement)
• enthusiasm - interest and enjoyment associated with the work

As a hyper-enthusiastic personality (who also loves alliteration) I applaud this analysis!
