INDECISION

Do you struggle with making decisions?

Not really. Indecision is a decision. And it’s a sign of a lack of confidence.

So…why are you so indecisive?

 

If your answer is, “I don’t want to make the wrong choice,” consider the impact:

  • Has your team lost confidence in your leadership?
  • Is productivity slipping?
  • Are opportunities and milestones being missed?
  • Do you hear frustration in the corridors, HR, or the boardroom?
  • Are your competitors catching up and passing you?


When you start to see that the folks around you look like they are losing faith in your leadership as a result of all those consistent delays, your vague decisions, or those key projects that keep stalling due to the poor direction from your desk, it’s time for YOU to make some changes.


So, how do you become more decisive?
  • Clarify your priorities and focus on what truly matters.
  • Stop overthinking and set deadlines to make a call.
  • Trust your knowledge and instincts garnered from your years of experience.
  • Commit and adjust the course, if need be.
  • Being decisive requires balancing information, intuition, and a willingness to take calculated risks. Your decisiveness will inspire your team, drive progress, and position you for success.

 

Besides…the odds are in your favour.

Making the decision gives you a 50% chance of getting it right…plus the experience gained from the lessons learnt will help you to make better ones in the future.

If indecisiveness is holding your business back, bringing in #fractional leadership can help. The right expertise, on demand, will gives clarity, direction, and momentum when you need it most.
