The Peter Principle of Projects: a project will grow to the level of incompetence of the leader(s).
That means 2 things:
If you want your project to grow you have to grow to stay ahead of it.
If you want your project to grow even bigger, you have to get out of the way and let it.
It really is all about you. Your business or project is stuck because you are. When I say you, I mean me. You (I) have a responsibility to continually grow and improve or our projects can’t.
If we want our projects to be even bigger than us, we have to get out of the way and let others take a stake. The more we push decision-making, idea-generation and leadership out, the better our results will be. Those results will be multiplied by the number of people working towards success. The size of the wins will increase with the encouragement of innovation. The number of failed experiments will also increase with the number of leaders multiplied by the culture of innovation.
It takes time to bring people in, train them, share your vision and build a culture. That time is an investment in your project’s success.
