Spot trouble while it's still small
Train your attention to catch the early signals of a problem days before it forces a decision, so you're choosing your response instead of reacting to a fire.
See trouble coming while there's still time to stop it.
The costliest fires are the ones that were obvious in hindsight and invisible in the moment. This is the skill that moves your eyes upstream, so the surprise never lands.
Everyone saw it after. You want to see it before.
- The post-mortem ends with 'we should have caught this earlier' — and everyone nods, because the warning signs were there for weeks.
- A client surprise blows up the week. When you trace it back, the question that would have surfaced it was one nobody thought to ask.
- Priorities shift overnight and you lose your footing, spending days recalibrating instead of having already lined up a plan B.
- You're firefighting again — handling the crisis well, but exhausted, because the crisis was preventable and nobody steered around it in time.
