11:11 Tuesdays by Vaishali Wagle

Happy 11:11 Tuesdays Reader,

Wishing you a year filled with possibilities and heart full of courage, Happy New Year!

Here are 1 Thought, 1 Quote, 1 Word and 1 Humour for you to reflect upon this week.

1.

Thought

Two attributes that together spell excellence.

Think of anything that makes you say Wow or Waah! - it could be a tech product, an online service, a 8-lane highway, a leadership event, an airport, a meal, or even a cup of tea :)

​
The two attributes that would have definitely played a crucial role in the making of these varied range of products, services or experiences are Speed and Quality.

But 90% of the time this is what happens: we focus on speed and we risk quality OR vice versa.

​

The real deal is how can we bring both speed and quality into our creations?

​
​

Because any of the Wow or Waah products, services or experiences won’t create the same impact:

if quality is high but they took so long to make that the audience was tired of the delay

Or if speed was great but had flaws or they broke a little too soon.

​

So, the next time you want to create something Wow, what can you do to bring both Speed and Quality into your design and delivery decisions?

If preparing for a CXO auditions is on your priority for...

Thought Disruption has a way of interrupting our identity before it disrupts our role. Leaders who grow fastest don’t resist disruption, they interrogate it because the discomfort that comes with disruption isn’t a signal to retreat; it’s a data point asking to be examined. What discomfort is pointing you toward your next...
