The questions
Commentary explains what happened. Better questions change what happens next.
Each piece leaves leaders with a question worth taking back into their organisation.
- What would leaders need to know about their organisation before approving the business case — and why is that the information they almost never have?
- If the strategy requires the organisation to make a different kind of decision, who currently has the right to make it — and what would have to be true for them to make it well?
- If a capable leader left tomorrow, would the organisation lose a contributor or lose a function?
- Which of our global standards exist because they genuinely require consistency — and which exist because consistency was easier to administer?
