Common problems in the business world (from what I have experienced):
*everyone* thinks they are a developer/software designer
*everyone* thinks they could run IT and the software staff (and thinks they should!)
*everyone* thinks that innovative solutions can be scheduled, and thus can have predictable end dates.
I have to add to that however, that in my experience, none of these people can even do job #1, which is to say, document properly.
