Is your organization like my house?

Colleagues,

I have major projects going on at my house right now:

1. Installing new doors
2. Replacing our stairs and stair railing
3. Building new raised beds in the garden
4. Planting out the garden
5. Making and installing new trim for the baseboards, doors, and windows.
6. Replacing light fixtures

 
Some thoughts:

1. This is too many things to focus on 
2. The pressure and stress have a tangible negative impact on me
3. All of these things need to be done

 
Our organizations are like my house – there are many aspects in which we can and need to get better. The problem is that when we lay them all out it becomes overwhelming. And when we try to address more than one or two things at a time, we just keep jumping from one to the other without really making significant progress.
 
How many focus areas does your organization have right now? How much consistency is there between what your leaders want and what you want from the people you lead?
 
More on this tomorrow.
 
Do good and be well,
 
Frederick
