DESCRIPTION

This is about 8 years old but I ran across it today and am adding it to the bucket. This was a very basic, introductory presentation made to a group of training professionals, some of whom were at the start of learning about performance consulting. It accompanied a few other days of training, and we had a leadership team and a few (experienced) performance consultants on board already.

Monday, Monday

Never try to eat an elephant in one bite

Focus on step one:Over-define the problem

Document everything

Problem-solve to the edge of your comfort zone

Bring in reinforcements as needed; but remain the contact point
