Did
you ever need to get something done (even something relatively simple) and have
to go through an organizational gauntlet to get started?
Next
time, don’t wait for permission. Just
do it.
Stopping
your progress will then require someone to act.
Odds
are no one will.
To act requires taking a stand or voicing a position.
To act
requires taking responsibility for stopping forward motion.
People
generally don’t like to do that.
Instead of being frustrated by the inertia in your organization, find a way to
get it to work for you.
Wally! How true.
I’m going to use your favourite phrase now whenever I can 😉
(We won’t tell your kids, Ann)

How true Wally, just don’t tell my kids that!
Reminds me of one of my favorite rules of life: it is almost always easier to get forgiveness than it is to get permission.
Karin – I feel the same way and can’t wait to meet you at SOBCon08!
Once again Ann, you’re ‘my kind of person’!
