On Execution: There's 2 ways to get things done in business

by Rick Baker
On Nov 18, 2013

There are two ways to get things done in business: self-selection/direction & mastered delegation.

Some people are natural-born self-selectors/directors. Often, they are Achievers, Activators, & Executioners...and sometimes workaholics.

Other people are not. Often, they are Futurists, Visionaries, & Ideationists...and sometimes procrastinators.

One big problem in business: these opposites find themselves trying to work together.

Thought Tweet #871

by Rick Baker
On Nov 18, 2013

Thought Tweet #871 In pre-historic times people who didn't listen got eaten...now they are able to roam the streets and work in offices.

 

The Thinking Behind The Tweet

Could it be 21st Century predators are a forgiving lot of creatures?

Could it be Darwin was wrong?

...survival of the fittest? ... or was it survival of the most adaptable? ... or is it survival of the least able to listen?

Assuming evolution is an accurate theory - and I'm not so sure about that any more - How many generations will it take for human ears to shrink and disappear through lack of use?
