Roll work is a light version of heavy handed decision-making. It can be done in two hours and gives students an appetite to do more, says the author. By the time we are ready to do roll work, which almost inevitably we will realize we need to do, there hopefully is a bunch of clarity,. cause we just tried it on the narlies for size.
A big frustration we often encounter in our work concerns decision-making. Folks feel like their process is too slow; too fast; includes the wrong people; excludes the right people; is too big; is too small. No matter the specific organizational headaches, the headline basically stays the same: “We know this isn’t working but we can’t fix the problem.”
In this episode of Brave New Work, Aaron Dignan and Rodney Evans take a deep dive into decision-making indecision, exploring:
- The impediments that tend to block good decision-making
- The “problems” traditional, top-down decision-making processes are designed to deal with
- The myths we tell ourselves about who can decide what and when
- The difference between being non-directive and being indecisive
- The simplest moves teams can make to up their decision-making game
