Middle Management
Step into the world of corporations, cubicles, and “circling back”, mythical concepts that had only existed in the lores. (Don’t ask us about Discord access sorry; they don’t pay us enough!)

i have been thinking about a common issue that plagues organizations (communities, companies, governments). in a vacuum, everyone believes a shared vision is important. in practice, the tolerance for pressure over speedy decisions is lower than that for the time (cost) required to reach consensus— this is a limit to growth. the benefits of a shared vision is delayed, whereas its costs show up very quickly. managing this limit to growth is a matter of time/delay management mitigation hypothesis: - shift mental model: neutralize preference for speed by setting expectations for time required for benefits to emerge - buffer costs: refine consensus process to reduce resources required - celebrate early signals: highlight small wins that are logical milestones towards ultimate goal before this goal fully materializes
