Decide what to stop doing when everything is a priority
the team has more "priorities" than people, everything is behind, and you need to choose what to stop rather than rank everything again.
Built on
Jim Collins · 2001
Supplies the filter: the hedgehog's three circles and the economic denominator. Walgreens sold its profitable Corky's restaurants because they weren't the hedgehog.
Walter Isaacson · 2011
Supplies someone doing it under pressure: Jobs in 1997 cutting Apple to four products on a 2x2 grid, and the Top 100 retreat where he crossed out all but three priorities.
The prompt
My situation: [list what's currently a priority, how many people you have, and what's falling behind]
Use Good to Great by Jim Collins (2001) and Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson (2011) to help.
