Episode notes
Borrowing a Genius
- If your team lacks a specific Working Genius, try borrowing someone from another department who possesses it.
- For example, someone with Ideation can help with brainstorming, but Galvanizing is harder to borrow because it's needed daily.
Structural Substitutes
- Bo doubts that structural substitutions, like handouts or dedicated meetings, effectively replace true Galvanizing.
- He believes such solutions don't provide the necessary disruptive energy.
Visible Reminders
- Use visible reminders, like a large sign displaying team priorities, to keep everyone focused.
- Make it slightly edgy to create a sense of urgency and accountability.
