The Workaround by Bob Gilbreath Podcast

Stop Talking, Start Trying


Listen Later

As you read these words, tens of millions of people are sitting in conference rooms or on Zoom calls discussing whether to do one thing or another.

They work in startups, corporate gigs, not-for-profits, and government jobs.

And 99% of these meetings will end with indecision. A task force will look at it. Consultants will be called. And, of course, a follow-up meeting will be scheduled as soon as everyone is available again. Maybe by Q4.

But in the other 1% of those meetings, an individual or small team will roll up their sleeves and get to work.

If it’s this easy—and often even fun—why isn’t everyone doing it?

Likely fear of failure, combined with groupthink and a lack of real urgency. But maybe someone out there just needs to see what’s possible, even within a giant corporation.
