Thinking big is what leads to growth plans, new products and services, and ultimately growth for everyone in the organization. In regards to execution, a thoughtful and phased approach is needed. While we may think big, due to its current state, the organization’s capacity to immediately follow up with the same level of action is naturally lacking. Team members have to grow with the vision and believe that the approach to achieving results is rational. Therefore, after the big thoughts have led to a high level vision, the plan has to be structured so that the actions to get there are formulated by the team, and are in small (but frequent) doses that can be inspected and managed along the way.
Exponential Growth requires big thinking as well as focused incremental growth planning.
