Most organizations continually put the right person in the wrong position or worse yet,the wrong person in any position at all.
In the industrial age,people didn’t matter very much to a company.All the company had to do was build a factory with an assembly line,hire workers and train them to turn bolts,hang tires,and keep up with the production line.In other words,the line not the people determined the rate of production.
In the information age,things became different.Now people matter.The key to success in the information age is not high speed assembly lines,but high speed and high-quality human thought working towards a common objective.
In the industrial Age,sand thrown into the gears of a machine could shut down an entire assembly line.In the information age,sand thrown into human thought and interaction can shut a company’s productivity.For example,an emotional upset in the business is the same as sand thrown into the gears of productivity.
Upsetting people is easy,especially in business.Its guaranteed that if you two people in a company going at 100 miles per hour,three people going at 20 miles an hour,and one person who is out to-lunch mentally,there will be upset.These upsets slow business from speed of thought to the speed of blaming and arguing.This can ultimately bring everything to a standstill,including your Midas Touch.
Humans are not machines.Human work at different speeds.You cannot just step on human being the same way you step on a gas-pedal.In most cases,if you step on human beings,productivity decreases.People must work together for a company to thrive…I welcome your thoughts and Ideas…Sam
