During the pandemic, companies had little choice but to adopt a remote work model. As time passed, many organizations saw overall productivity rise, fundamentally altering their perspective on telecommuting as a long-term option. However, while some employees thrived as remote workers, the strategy isn’t without drawbacks. If an employer isn’t communicative and transparent, its workforce may feel disconnected and unsupported.

We had a huge storm overnight. Our two-acre pond flooded over the driveway and nearly up to our bridge. 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.

To be powerful, a medium needs two things: The ability to reach people who take action The ability for someone in charge to change what those people see and hear and do. The telephone reaches a lot of people, but AT&T has very little power because they have no influence over who makes phone calls. Lots of people have Sony TVs, but it’s Netflix that has the cultural power because they decide which shows are promoted on the start screen.

Good ideas feel early. And late ideas are acclaimed by most of the reviewers with opinions that don’t actually matter. Part of our challenge is that the lousy ideas get a very similar pre-launch response as the great ones. If you wait until the market is telling you exactly what it wants, you’re almost certainly too late.
