Diligence JonesTo folks who are familiar with EOS:
If you know of a support group for Integrators, lemme know.
Reigning in and keeping a Visionary on track is making me crave a morning cocktail.
It's really interesting how leadership teams crave but also avoid discipline.
Maybe it's my personal um...Disciplinarian mode, but gotdangit. Remember the VTO!!
We have a plan!
We only pivot when external conditions shift, threatening the plan!
We don't pivot because you came back from vacation and got stressed out.
It's not like I don't understand anxiety and fear. Fear of failure, laying off staff, cutting programs. That's part of the day to day of being a nonprofit leader.
We had a major staffing shift happen. I'm not going to freak out. I see this as an opportunity. To realign, tag some younger untapped folks in, make good on a program promise, reposition ourselves a little -- and dig in to our VTO.
Not panic! Believe in the plan!
I need visionary leaders to trust the process and their teams a little more.
