INSIGHT

Consensus Rarely Drives Major Decisions

  • Consensus rarely happens in leadership; major successful company decisions were not unanimous.
  • Jim Collins' research cited in Traction shows pivotal decisions that drove success were made without full agreement among leaders.
ADVICE

Listen Then Assign Decision Authority

  • Counsel with your team, actively listen, then assign decision authority to the best-suited person.
  • Use councils to get input and buy-in, but let the designated leader make the call to maintain speed and accountability.
ANECDOTE
