A supplier sits down with a customer and tells the customer how best to work with them.
An employee tells the boss to figure out a better compensation plan for him.
A partner at a firm says he wants more opportunity and stares at the other partners in the board meeting.
All of these things are happening daily. We want more and would like someone to figure it out for us. We don't want to step on toes. We just know we want things a little different or better.
Wanting things to be better is good. Expecting someone else to solve it is not the best plan. Ideally we need to bring our best recommendation or solution to customers, bosses and partners. Otherwise, we wait and wait.
Bringing your recommendation is smart because it doesn't have to be perfect, it shows ownership and it doesn't rob others of their energy. And you just may get what you want...
