What's Your BIG Picture?

Limited View

Sometimes we limit our view unknowingly by looking through a small window.

Similarly, if a business/organization focuses solely on quick revenue and neglects long-term growth strategies, it misses the big picture.

One way of widening the window is identifying your "good mattress" (e.g., the tangible offering like a product or service consumers pay for) and your "good night's sleep" (e.g., the emotional value).

Egocentric View

Sometimes we get too hung up on our personal agendas and see ourselves as the only problem solver.

Similarly, if a business owner or an organization leader prioritizes personal benefits and fails to recognize team dynamics for overall success, he/she misses the big picture. Neither would a company wants their employees to be driven only by a paycheck.

Create shared experiences within the company/organization (e.g., celebrating employment anniversaries, individual or collective achievements) will help everyone deepen the relational dynamics.

Contextual View

Sometimes we fail to change our perspective and consider other possible points of view.

Similarly, if a business/organization gets buried in the day-to-day and does not spend time looking at customer data and industry trends, it misses the big picture.

Acknowledge team members' contribution in their area of expertise while helping them appreciate what others bring to the table.
