When I wrote the thought about twelve questions to high performance, I thought it was particularly interesting that the word "Someone" was so prevalent. This reminded me of a little story about 4 people called Everyone, Someone, Anyone and No-one . There are loads of versions on the web but here's mine.
There were once four members
of a project team:
Everyone,
Someone,
Anyone and
No-one
Like all projects there are some important tasks to do,
Everyone
was really busy and was sure that
Someone had
more time to do most of these tasks, but
Someone thought
Anyone
could do them.
However
Anyone
couldn't do them,
and so unless
Anyone
made Someone
realise that
Someone was the best person to do those
jobs, Everyone
ended up allocating the jobs to
No-one.
Sadly No-one wasn't very good at getting these jobs done, so the result was a disaster, which impacted Everyone.
Everyone ended up
angry with
Someone,
because
Everyone knew that
Someone
could do
the jobs
better better than No-one.
Till next week, be
the someone who takes action
