Dangling.
During a recent Nashville brunch at the Union Station hotel, my wife & I were intrigued to watch this window washer work.
Hanging from a series of ropes, he managed to navigate the full window by swinging side to side. It looked incredibly difficult, really uncomfortable, and totally daunting.
Ever feel like you are just dangling?
Unless you are a window washer….or maybe a professional rock climber….or a trapeze artist…. (you get the point), no one wants to be just dangling at work.
If you, your team, (or your customers), feel like there isn’t firm footing, it creates discomfort & uncertainty. Not a productive environment.
If dangling, today is a good day to identify those ropes & pulleys that are keeping everyone suspended and start bringing them back to solid ground.
Setting clear expectations, offering regular check-ins with honest feedback & removal of obstacles are usually good ropes to tug.
Your team will thank you for establishing a more consistent, reliable foundation.
Leave that swinging sensation for the window washers.
