THE SHERPA GETS NO GLORY

THE SHERPA GETS NO GLORY

Something I’ve been wrestling with lately is how best to sell what we do here at Measurable Genius. I know that we can work with any client in any business to make it better. But communicating that to other people is a tricky task. People want to see exactly how we’re going to live up […]

WHERE THE FUCK IS THE KETCHUP

WHERE THE FUCK IS THE KETCHUP

Accountability is a word that makes people cringe. Sure, it’s great to think up ideas and strategies and all, but when it comes time to actually implement them, there’s a lot of shifty eyes and sideways glances. That’s why accountability needs to be clearly defined: if you’re the one who needs to get something done, […]

As a business leader, you have the tendency to collect accountabilities. If it’s unclear who’s in charge of anything, it defaults to you as the leader. Over time, as your business grows and scales, that’s a lot of little accountabilities for one person to have. Often, it becomes impossible for one person to keep all […]
