Podcast #8 - Triage (or saving the patient)
This week we continue our journey through Step 3: Managing Expectations
and
talk about how to present
the "bad news," as part of your efforts to ensure the senior team knows
what you are up to and why. The triage part of the discussion is also
pretty important because it will indicate whether you have a snowball's
chance in hell of actually making progress on the program. If you can't
get agreement on the 2 or 3 things you think are most important to do
TODAY - then it doesn't bode well for the stuff you want to do tomorrow
and the day after that.
Running time: 6:27
Intro music is Jungle (get used to it, it's not changing unless the
copyright poli ce come to visit), and we finish up with a live excerpt
of Bon Jovi's "Bad Medicine," since that's the news we tend to deliver
during triage.
