Business Problems Solved Podcast Does Your Team Have A Silence, A Conversation or an Action Bias? Find the Balance
Lee, through his work with teams, has been asked for feedback on how he would assess the teams performance. When reducing the time from thought to conversation to action there are three biases that characterise different groups' approach to actioning ideas.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- The Silent Bias. This is when we don’t feel comfortable or confident enough to share what we think
- The Conversation Bias. We are happy to share ideas but tend to stick at the discussion stage, reluctant to commit and action the idea.
- The Action Bias. We would rather get straight to the action rather than spend time discussing it.
- The ideal situation is to find a balance between all three.
BEST MOMENTS
‘I think what we have to try to find is a balance for this. We have to try to find a way to navigate through this on an individual and a team level.’
‘You’ve got to create more thoughts in your people. You’ve got to get them thinking differently. You’ve got to inspire and motivate them and challenge the heads of our people.’
‘need to create a place where people can do things and try things themselves and this is a challenge in finding a balance between all three.’
