Leadership.
At the end of the day.
A big part of it is just fucking guessing.
Isn’t it?
And the best guesser wins.
Leadership.
Someone has to lead.
At least in good organisations they do.
And if that leader is a good leader.
They’ll be informed.
Talented.
Appropriately skilled.
Driven and hard working.
Confident and brave.
Supported by enthused and appropriately capable people.
In appropriately allocated and beautifully coherent roles.
Because they.
The leader.
Will have made all of that so.
Guessing.
Nevertheless.
With all of that said and done.
When push comes to shove.
In many trying times.
And in many of the most pivotal moments.
The leader of the organisation has to make important decisions.
And a significant percentage of them will be pioneering decisions.
Particularly if the organisation is ambitious.
The leader will be making decisions that are future-facing and future-shaping.
So there’s no case study.
No manual.
And no formula.
Because things are new.
And that’s why I say.
What I say.
Leadership.
At the end of the day.
A big part of it is just fucking guessing.
Isn’t it?
And the best guesser wins.
