If an organization is full of the former, the analytical, strategy person they are in danger of becoming paralyzed with development and getting ready to take action. However, if an organization is heavy with deal makers that tend to take action prior to giving those actions any thought they are in danger of making mistakes that will cost money in the long run.
As a strong take action, deal maker type of guy, I know how important it is to slow down and think and plan regularly. It is easy for me to take an idea to implementation and action in a heartbeat. Anyone that stands in the way really annoys me. This approach has proven to be very successful for me over th the last 30+ years. However, I have found that bouncing ideas and new plans off of someone who is more deliberate and analytical has proven time and time again to be a very beneficial strategy. That tells me that if I would make a commitment to have someone with those strong attributes on my team and learning to incorporate their strengths into my formula instead of being annoyed by their perceived resistance then I could move success and winning to a new level.
I have a suspicion that many of you deal with this same dilemna. My team needs a "why guy" as much as we need the "lets get 'er done guy"! The strengths of the analytical individual to help devise the strategy will streamline and create a more efficient process that will lead to more opportunity for the deal makers. Efficiency in the distribution process always makes more money!
Expect to Win!
