“Why you going to the airport? Flying somewhere?” – Dumb and Dumber

Does your team ask questions that seem like dumb questions? Could it be that they don’t have the whole picture that you have?

An important piece of the picture for everyone to know is the “Commanders Intent”…simply meaning, WHAT DOES SUCCESS LOOK LIKE?...not how to get there.

What are the chances your team will “hit the target” when they don’t even know what they are aiming for? What about when things don’t go as planned (because they won’t). Try letting them know what success looks like, and you will be surprised by the results.
