Do you suffer from DPS…Decision Paralysis Syndrome?
Do you panic that you might make the wrong decision so you put it off until it’s too late? Or worse, decide to put it up to a vote?
Imagine if the military operated that way. Our troops would be ambushed while their COs finished a round robin tournament of Rock, Paper, Scissors.
Decision making is a critical function of leadership. And, more to the point, indecision disqualifies you from the role.
If you aren’t willing to make decisions (yes, even unpopular ones), you can’t lead – no matter what your job title.
