Blind spots can hinder your business’ ability to see all there is to see.  It’s easy to see them with hindsight when your firm is confronted by something that it didn’t expect, anticipate or predict.  By seeking out ways to shake things up both personally and professionally we can create an environment that lowers the chance of being blindsided.  In this video we start with reviewing Edward de Bono’s four complacencies, then consider blind trust and how to create leadership and management.

Watch the video for background information about Complacency Creep, feel free to request the templates laura@thehiddenedge.co.uk. I am happy to share.

1. Consider Edward de Bono’s descriptions of the 4 complacencies in relation to the management of your business

2. Further explore the 10 aspects in relation to blind trust.  On a score of 1-5 with 5 being fab, further assess your management and leadership performance

3. Determine what leadership and management activities you might adopt to ensure you don’t fall fowl of any of the complacency traps

Please share your experiences with this model in the comments below.  I am building a portfolio of small business case studies and would love to include examples of what has worked well for you.
