Thinking Comprehensively
 
Planning effectively minimizes risks and increases the chances for success.
How Does It Work?
Leaders understand the big picture and communicate them in smaller components for the team members to handle portions of it. However, when the leader fails to think strategically, the organization may fail. Chess Grandmasters make sacrifices with the bigger picture in mind, while lower-rated players may try to protect their queen. “Everything rises and falls on leadership,”1 and it is up to you to be the strategic thinker.

Impact of Ad-Hoc Decision-Making

  • Other benefits may be missed.
