“The difference between successful people
and very successful people is that very
successful people

           say no
                  to almost everything.”


       — Commonly attributed to Warren Buffett

Apple’s Success

―…saying no to 1,000 things to
make sure we don’t get on the
wrong track or try to do too
much. We’re always thinking
about new markets we could
enter, but it’s only by saying
no that you can concentrate
on the things that are really
important.‖
        — Steve Jobs

The Reality…
      …You CAN’T do it all
         – and do it well.

The Myth of Multi-tasking

• Not possible to do two conscious activities at
  once.
• You are ―switch-tasking.‖
• David Meyer – University of Michigan
    – Engineers switched between projects 5-8 times per
      day
    – Each switch added 20 minutes of process time
    – If switch only 5x per day, adds 1.7 hrs per day or 407
      hours (10 weeks) of process time per engineer
    – In company w/ 15 engineers = 3 FTEs* worth of labor.


 * FTE = Full Time Equivalent
                                                           18
Not Convinced? Try this
                timed experiment.
            Multitasking is a lie.

Round 1: Write M, 1, U, 2, L, 3, etc.
Round 2: Write complete sentence, followed by numbers 1-18.
Round 2’s time will be approximate half of Round 1’s.

Annual Improvement Plan
1. Gain clarity around overarching business needs.
2. List everything you could do (and that you are doing).
3. Categorize into:
   – “Must-do, can’t fail”
   – Maybe
   – Eliminate
4. Decide what you will do – prioritize “maybe’s”; gain
   consensus.
5. Create plan.
6. Manage plan via weekly updates (may be able to
   reduce to monthly reviews – but be careful!).

The Myth of Multi-tasking • Not possible to do two conscious activities at once. • You are ―switch-tasking.‖ • David Meyer – University of Michigan – Engineers switched between projects 5-8 times per day – Each switch added 20 minutes of process time – If switch only 5x per day, adds 1.7 hrs per day or 407 hours (10 weeks) of process time per engineer – In company w/ 15 engineers = 3 FTEs* worth of labor. * FTE = Full Time Equivalent 18

Editor's Notes

  1. Jim Collins – Stop doing list.Matt May – The Laws of Subtraction“Not Do” List.
  2. So Ari has his 12 natural laws of business – I have four. Instead we often find ourselves trying to maneuver within rather chaotic environments. We need to pay more attention to the fundamentals.There are four behavioral patterns that are required for excellence in any endeavor but are missing in many organizations. (click…)(I almost numbered these 1, 1, 1, and 1)Define each term - MG
  3. I have noticed an alarming amount of ambiguity from big picture issues to the micro details of how an organization operations. At a macro level.. (next slide)
  4. Distraction kills on the road and it kills in business as well.
  5. Ongoing studyAri mentioned the Alice in Wonderland quote, which is in my next book – it doesn’t matter which path you take if you have no idea where you’re going.
  6. Jim Collins – Stop doing list.Matt May – The Laws of Subtraction“Not Do” List.
  7. This takes courage.
  8. Notice these steep productivity gains achieving during a significant recession.
  9. Now imagine how this plays out across an entire organization.Not keynotey - MG
  10. So let’s say you don’t have immediate leverage over your exec team. While you’re influencing them, you can produce more local results by implementing these mindsets and behaviors at a more local level – say a single business unit, functional area, or work team.
  11. Multi-tasking is a lie. David Meyer – studied engineers – switched tasks 5-8 times per day and took add’l 20 mins each time they did it. In a company with 15 engineers, that’s 3 FTEs of wasted labor.20-40% more projects completed by focusing on fewer at any given time.If you want to prove this to people – Have them write Multitasking is a lie and numbers 1-18. Dave Crenshaw The Myth of Multitasking.
  12. So here is what our new organization will look like at the leadership level.My span of control remains the same, still with 7 direct reports.However, as I mentioned earlier, part of my objective is to create better, tighter and stronger alignment across the organization.This means that:All Service functions will organize under one leader.All Sales functions will organize under one leader.We’ll be adding dedicated focus to relationship management so we have a primary go-to person.We’re putting all administrative support functions together into one group.And we’ll be adding resources dedicated to Op Ex.Supply Chain and Strategy/Analysis are essentially unchanged.This is just a high level view, and I’m going to spend more detail on the areas with the most change. But before we look at individual boxes of responsibility, I’d like to share the overall design for how we’ll be approaching and organizing Sales and Service.This is a new model for how we’ll focus on and organize around the customer.
  13. Consensus – disagree but commit.
