Stamp Of . . Err, Let's Wait And See - Small Business Trends

management business cartoon
I had a manager who could never make a decision:

  • ?So, what do you think?? I?d say. ?I?ll get back to you,? he?d respond.
  • ?Is that OK?? I?d ask. ?I?ll let you know,? he?d say.
  • ?How about it?? I?d inquire. ?Let me think about it,? he?d reply.

After each exchange, he?d scuttle off to his managers office, chat them up, get their opinion, and then ? and only then ? could he deliver a decision.

Listen, I understand the value in getting another point of view, but often these were simple, even mundane decisions like, ?Greg and I would like to trade lunch hours today. Okay with you?? Scuttle, chat, question, ?I guess it?s Okay.?

Maddening to be sure. ?But at least I got a good cartoon out of it.
