Focus

Office politics hinders good focus. Worrying so much about what my superior think of me, concerned about how my peers view me, freezing front of confrontational boss, hiding valuable information from co worker, focusing on reducing my workload or pretend to blow up my workload... All lead to inefficiencies. 

What we need is accountability, collaboration, shared vision, common goal, and focus. 

These are all wonderful words. But it needs to be more tactical, narrowed down.

How can we get our heads out of our day to day task and get every members in the company to see the big picture together?

How can we get them to focused on solving important problems that the organization has rather than solving their own problem of "how can I increase my salary?", "how can I do less, but make it seem like I do a lot?"

1. Say your goal out loud front of everyone.
2. Decide who will hold whom/what accountable with deadline
3. Write/print these on the wall you see everyday 
4. Follow up.
5. Do it again. Get in habit
