ADVICE

Communication is Key

💬 "If somebody's, I give somebody a piece of work and they come back six months later and they have done the wrong thing, now I'll take the L."

  • If a project goes wrong, reflect on how you could have communicated better.
  • Consider if you could have set clearer priorities or expectations.
  • Evaluate if you provided the team with the right metrics.
  • Reflect on if you assigned the right people to the task.
  • Remember that org charts are communication tools, not physical constraints.
  • Even silence communicates; lack of check-ins can signify a lack of trust or responsibility.

Key takeaway: Effective communication is crucial for leadership and achieving desired outcomes. Take ownership of communication breakdowns and analyze how you could have improved.
