Implicit
You operate on implicit thoughts constantly.
Implicit thoughts are the result of heuristic models that enable you to make sense of a complex, ambiguous reality.
Without them, a single decision within your team could take an eternity.
In contrast, most breakdowns within teams or projects can be traced back to some form of implicit thinking or expectation.
The push for expediency opens the door for unmitigated implicit thought.
Unmitigated implicit thought is the antithesis of thoughtfulness.
When things go wrong, there is one essential question to ask.
What implicit expectation, unchallenged, was allowed to continue guiding my thoughts?
As you develop as a leader, the real work is to ask that question before things go wrong.
