You want it done when?
Friday, July 3rd, 2009
Orrin Woodward and myself think alike.
Leaders make a habit of under-promising and over-delivering. The goal is not to satisfy, but amaze your customers.
As a Mayor I under-promised all the time. If a project was scheduled to be complete next week I said two weeks. I especially under-promised when I had little control over when/how something would happen.
And yes, the customers (citizens/taxpayers) were always amazed when there was an over-delivery on my promise.
After all, how often does any politician over-deliver!
