Five ways to leverage synergy in today's fast-paced digital landscape
In today’s fast-paced digital landscape, businesses need to move fast. That is why we wrote this post slowly, so you could keep up.
1. Align your stakeholders
Get everyone in a room. Agree that alignment matters. Schedule a follow-up to discuss what you aligned on.
2. Break down silos
Silos are bad. We are not sure why, but every post like this one says so, and we are nothing if not consistent.
3. Circle back
Whatever you were going to do, do not do it now. Circle back. Circling is a shape, and shapes are a form of progress.
4. Move the needle
Find the needle. Move it. If you cannot find the needle, a haystack makes an excellent slide background.
5. Leverage synergy
We saved the best for last. Leverage the synergy. Now you know everything we know, which, to be clear, is this list.
Questions and answers
What is synergy?
Synergy is when the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Nobody has measured the parts, so the claim is safe.
How do I know if I have broken down a silo?
You will hold a meeting about it. If the meeting is scheduled, the silo is considered broken down.
What does circling back accomplish?
It moves the decision to a later meeting. Circling is a shape, and the post counts shapes as progress.
