Lead Like a 5 Year Old

Sometimes it is profitable to lead like you are 5 years old . . . . not the tantrum part, but asking a lot of 'why' questions?

When we question what we have, it forces us to think toward broader solutions.

Here are some of mine. So, if we are moving toward movements everywhere . . . . then . . .
  • Why do we allocate staff at all? Why don't we allow people to allocate themselves? (because everywhere is everywhere)
  • Why do we determine the number of summer projects? Why cant anyone lead one?
  • Why do I tell people where to go for the summer?
  • Why do we hire people on a national level and place them from a regional level but have them answer to people on a local level? Couldn't we do all of this from a local level?
Just a few things to ponder.
