What's your Game Plan?

Are you clear on this? Does your entire team know it cold?

Like all great managers, you DO have a game plan, which is clearly articulated at every meeting, right? And you meet at least once daily too, even for just 5 minutes.

What about contingencies, your DL, your farm system? These baseball analogies will help you substantially in having the practice you really want.
I teach you these lessons in modules 2 and 3, but they need to be revisited often Do you also have the right players at the right positions? Your best closer had better be on the front desk! You want your Pappelbon or Rivera!

A clear game plan can even be just a shift plan. You also must also make rapid decisions, and move players when needed.

Most importantly, your game must be fun, have known objectives and measurable results. Also, don't forget to celebrate your victories, and make changes in the face of defeat. Vow to make better decisions with each passing day!

Look at the greatest managers the next time you watch a game, and think how you would apply player shifts, pitcher selection etc to your office management style.

Also, see how the best managers deal with their players. And how often during a game they communicate. Watch the coaching signals too, as you must have these signs for your roster at peak times!

Are You Avoiding the Quick Fix?

Isn't it interesting how the term 'quick fix' became a put-down?

For myself I am happy to offer quick fixes. Isn't fast and speedy a big part of what you want? I would have thought so, if the alternative is that it would have to take ages to happen.

So why would anyone want to deliberately emphasize to you that they are NOT offering a quick fix?

My assessment is that people are concentrating on the first part of the phrase, and missing the most important point. How quick or slow something is is nice, but in the end the key factor is whether or not it is really solved.

'Quick fix' is a term for a cover-up, a bandaid, an incomplete job that needs to be redone properly later on. Well none of that is a fix. If you truly fix something,
it's done. Sometimes the fix is quick, but the results take time to show.

My work is often about providing lots of 'quick fixes'. I've never had anyone ask me for a slow one, although I will use ones that are slow if I don't have a fast one on hand. When I offer a complete solution, people are happy for it to be speedy too.

One way to create a fast solution is to get a more fundamental cause of a problem. Sometimes this will mean a solution takes longer, but often it actually makes it all quicker. The solution naturally fits in and works more smoothly.

A less comprehensive solution often leaves alot of additional work and that can take more time.

So when you next have someone dismiss something as a 'quick fix', just take a moment to decide if they really know what they are saying. Concentrate on the 'fix' side so you can make your own assessment, and if it truly fits as a solution, then full steam ahead!
