Monday Morning Stretch™ for Week 12, March 17, 2014 Agility and Opportunities. The value of the 80/20 planning method springs from two sources. First, none of us have a crystal ball. We attempt to break down large daunting problems into smaller manageable ones. It is easier to estimate the outcome of a series of manageable tasks than for a single large one. Secondly, starting movement towards a goal develops its own momentum. This method, when judiciously applied, will deliver faster and better results, assuming that your team is lean, empowered, and accountable. Your Stretch Assignment: How can you disrupt your own business processes to uncover hidden value? Sometimes this means delaying a milestone to add real value. In this case, be ready to defend your position from push back from your team. Thanks for your time. If you enjoyed this weeks stretch, please share this post, tell your friends and colleagues, and well see you next week!
