Not all members returned from lunch, which created its own challenges for the organizations. My board of directors removed me from the Chief Operating Officer position and made me President. I discovered that, as figureheads, presidents can do what they want, so I went and helped out on the production line. Without me, the middle managers finally made a profit, exceeded quotas, sold overproduction to other suppliers, and met all quality demands. You can t think, It s easy for me, so it should be easy for everyone.
Communication is key.
Sales must tell production. Authority must solve problems. Change is easier in smaller organizations, also faster. Time is the key. Larger organizations often have no time for employee input.
