Given enough information, doing the right thing and doing things right converge.

Given enough information, doing the right thing and doing things right converge.
- alexgartrell 6y agoIt’s less about having enough information and more about having leaders who have established reasonable constraints and incentives. Organizations get into trouble when doing the right thing runs counter to (intentional or accidental) incentive structures. The point of the tweet is that leaders find a way to do the right thing anyway.
- youeseh 6y agoThats just, like, your opinion, maan :p. Kidding aside, I don't think our interpretations disagree.
- austincheney 6y agoI completely disagree. First of all most of us can’t predict the future. Decisions still require execution in the meantime. Waiting for increased confidence can result in lost opportunities. Secondly, doing things right and doing the right thing imply completely different scenarios. For most people doing things right is often a matter of selection bias resulting in something popular at the center of a bell curve. That is sacrificing greatness for safety. Doing the right things is a matter of greatness. It is a matter of achieving the best outcome from a given opportunity as viewed in hind sight.
