Bias for Action (Chapter 5)
When I read about Bias for Action and how top-performing companies are not characterized for taking a long time for making decisions, it reminded me of an organization I used to be a part of. This activist organization would take, what seemed like light years to make decisions. I felt that we needed to make decisions quickly enough to take action right away. I value everyone's opinion in a group, but I feel that when we take long to make decisions we will never catch up to the competition. Finally, I decided that this organization wasn't for me and I moved on. But, it left me thinking about how social justice organizations need to take more of a business approach to organizing.
