TOPIC: Slipping on Dates, Sliding on Days
Merlin and Dan talk about managing projects, scheduling calls, and being home when you scheduled a party. It SEEMS SO SIMPLE but then Jeannie has to go to Guam and slipping is your SOP.
The way out of this quagmire is to admit you can’t get out of it. You can’t change a culture of slipping with a poster or a fairy princess. You have to fix the slides if you want to fix the slips.
