The One Thing That Builds Capacity Without Adding Resources
Liz McMillan
May 01, 2026
When performance stalls, there is a response so instinctive it barely feels like a choice. Shrink the ambition. Cut the budget. Reduce the targets. Simplify the strategy into something the organisation can actually execute. The gap gets smaller - but only because the business has become smaller. And quietly, without anyone quite deciding it, expectations adjust. Of the team. Of the market. Of what is even possible.

And yet decisions stall, buy-in stays shallow, and the people they need to move... don't.

October 16, 2019
