What's wrong with remote work?
In the airplane, we usually make short-form communications work easily. But in business, it's tougher.
Here are TWO keys to making short-form communications work... Since the short-form message is the backbone of remote work, take a look and see how flying and business have some important parallels and how we can "fix" the remote messaging challenge.

Nuclear Option
Переглядів 123 роки тому
What's it mean to take the "nuclear option" when you're flying a plane? What about in business? I have suffered three engine failures of various types in small airplanes. Every time I advance the throttle on takeoff, I review the big picture in my head: I must be willing to kill the plane so I can live.

Failure

How Do Tech Founders Fail Just Enough to Learn but Not Die?! The engine burbled once, then failed. As I pitched the airplane for glide airspeed, I looked at the new airplane's owner sitting next to me. I asked him: "Did you touch anything?!" He quickly replied: "Nope!" Even though this was a high stakes situation, the fear and panic didn't set in. I had briefed an engine-out situation prior to ...

I dug way too deep down into the weeds on a project that wouldn’t move the needle. Or so I thought. You’re never supposed to do that as a business leader.

Are you flying right seat? (or is this some reverse mirror image sorcery?)
Astute observation of the communication barrier inherent in remote work.
Thanks this is interesting.
Great post Jim! It is great to be included in the big picture goals in a team atmosphere. Loved the short term motivation emphasis, its all about execution.
seems like snake oil.
how so? Have you seen CI or used it? Probably the best money we've ever spent on our business - and we've tried plenty of approaches to team analytics and building a team.
Good job Kevin, looks easy and straight forward. We're starting to organize the 2012 NWAAC flyin at Scappoose, OR. I'll get the info to the event calendar as it's created. Bernie Sutton
