How do you think things through? Do you have a system that logically takes you from A-Z?
If not...I may have a solution.
I've been reading a great book called "The Trump Way to the Top" which features business lessons taught by Donald Trump's favorite business leaders.
One of my favorite passages was written by the great Christie Hefner, Chairman and CEO of Playboy Enterprises, Inc.
Here's Christie's sage advice on thinking...
"I do believe that among the most important advice I ever received was the need to think like a good journalist. In other words, before you take a position or make a decision, gather information and different perspectives. Don't be afraid to ask questions or say you don't know. Run meetings in a way in which you ask each person to offer their point of view. Try to get everybody to think about and articulate the advantages and disadvantages of a course of action. I find that doing things that way has greatly improved the quality of my decision making."
Great advice from a great leader of a great enterprise!
