Running it, start to finish
- Compare stated priorities against where time and money actually go.
- Quantify the maintenance load before planning anything new.
- Fund the fragmented initiatives properly or stop them.
What you get back
The output this produces, every time.
- States the gap between stated and revealed priorities numerically, which makes it undeniable.
- Finds initiatives resourced enough to continue and not to succeed, the worst possible position.
- Counts leadership attention, which is scarcer than headcount and tracked nowhere.
Getting better results
Where this usually goes wrong, and how to avoid it.
- Measure the maintenance load. It is usually far larger than believed and is the actual constraint on doing anything new.
- Fund or stop the fragmented ones. Starving an initiative is easier than stopping it and produces the cost without the outcome.
- Consider narrowing the strategy. If the priorities cannot be resourced with what exists, the problem is the strategy rather than the teams.
