The other day, I saw another business guru sharing his wisdom. Apparently, founders and managers should delegate absolutely everything that can be done for less than $1,000 an hour. So they can focus on higher-value activities. Thousands of likes. Hundreds of comments. Everyone applauding. Sheep. Cheerleaders. It looked like an election campaign. But… don't get me wrong. You won't need to convince me about delegation. But… Delegation without control is called abdication. And there's something...
Ah… this consultancy world… it’s so funny. I just lost a mandate. The reason? Apparently, I was “too active.” Literally. Yes… this is why it is “too active” Not too expensive. Not too inexperienced. Not too busy. Too active. Infrastructure is… fascinating. Apparently, some projects need someone who doesn't ask too many questions. Doesn't challenge too many assumptions. Doesn't make too many decisions. And, above all, doesn't make anyone above them look uncomfortable. Ideally, someone who...
