This is inspired by Seth Godin’s Blog (I am compressing his 12 traits to 4). This is precisely why I stopped watching news. Does your organization:
- Focus on urgent instead of important
- See trees instead of the forest
- Resist changing course
- Confuse opinions of a loud minority as desire of the majority
To paraphrase Seth Godin, if I wanted to hobble an organization (or even a country), I’d wish these traits on them. Does this sound like your municipality?
