When you are up to your eyeballs in alligators, it is hard to remember your objective was to drain the swamp.
Every executive has faced this situation.
-
You have a clear vision of what you want to achieve.
-
You know what success will look like when you are done.
-
Your team has developed plans and schedules to make it happen.
And yet, the initiative stalls out or dies completely.
Is it an alligator or a log?
The first challenge is to figure out if you are truly dealing with alligators -- or just a bunch of logs. Both need to be removed in order to move forward, but they require very different handling.
The solution might be simple:
- a quick fix to a procedure
- a small investment in training
- a minor organizational change.
|
Or it might be more challenging:
- lack of leadership skills
- organizational conflicts
- active resistance to change
|
The point is, you need to know. And you may need help getting objective information from your organization so that you can remove those logs and alligators and get back to draining the swamp.
