A leadership mistake can be deadly, especially when ignored by the manager. Regardless, other people notice. Any manager faces the path of navigating the expectations of others as well as identifying and managing their own when a mistake happens. Most leaders have teams to inspire, goals to accomplish and results to drive. It is hard for managers, who generally have higher profiles, to conceal their oversights and shortcomings.

Are you frustrated with your board? Maybe three columns don't offer you enough information. Or maybe you agree with me that teams need to create their own boards. (See the Agile Approaches Offer Strategic Advantage; Agile Tools are Tactics series.) While you're intrigued by how to create your own board, you have zero money to spend. Not to mention your team is frantically trying to progress through all the “tickets” or “PBIs” (Product Backlog Items).

The flooding “cleansed” the pond, and washes out some of the detritus on the bottom, the decaying leaves, and so forth. The turtles, fish, frogs, and ducks all seem to take it in stride. That kind of cleansing is good for our businesses as well.

You may have seen this famous quote at some point in your life: “Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence alone is omnipotent.” – Calvin Coolidge.
