Lazy Thoughts Lead To Lazy Organisations

Let me be blunt here: jumping straight to the default organisational structure of managers, functions, and departments, along with a default Theory-X style culture, is a lazy and ineffective approach to organising your business. Sure, it’s the easy way out, and it’s what most businesses do, but that doesn’t mean it’s the best way. In fact, this approach leads to inefficiencies, silos, disengagement and a lack of agility.

To build a truly effective and successful business, you might choose to take the time to consider all of your options and think different. Challenge the status quo and try new things.

The point is, don’t settle for the default just because it’s easy. Take the time to explore other options and find a structure and culture that will best support your business goals and objectives. It may require more effort upfront, but the long-term benefits will be worth it.
