The Way It’s Always Been Done

This topic is the worst thought process in life generally, but in business, it’s a plague…avoid it at all costs. Not that change for change sake is a good thing, but you should constantly be evaluating if your systems, processes and norms are serving you and are effective as possible. If they aren’t, you need to fix that or if it’s not providing value, remove it! The number of times teams do things, just because it’s part of the process, is very disconcerting. The best way to keep teams and leaders effective, is to cut down on useless systems and processes. If you can’t prove that there is value, then there isn’t value and it’s time to move on. That sounds harsh, but every time you waste your people’s time or your own time, you are driving down your companies value. Keep asking questions! Keep evaluating! It will be worth it!

Thanks for being here! Let me know if you have ideas for topics to cover!
