What is the Main Deterrent to Participation?

There are lots of reasons why members participate in Road Tests and Design Challenges and there are lots of reasons why they don't.

This poll explores what seem to be the main deterrents. What is the main reason you do not participate?

Or if you participate in some, why not more?

  • Not having enough time doesnt correspond to thinking it isnt worth the effort ...Should really be seperated

     

    Even I wouldnt put so much negative spin on a poll selection!

    Yes, it sounds more negative than intended. Not having enough time is an absolutely legitimate reality of life.

    Ironically, most people who might check this box probably don't have time to do it....

    Strangely some of the excuses have been conflicts with other activities that require time.

     

    I do know that Challenge timeframes slip (usually due to supply), which means those that might have had time available to commit are suddenly left squeezed.

     

    There are others that would still struggle which is why the planning for a weekly blog is so important.

    If you are a disciplined, experienced and been there before, you may be able to wing it.

     

    However I have seen some that should fall into the category caught out when the item they needed wasn't available ... image
