Obama's infrastructure spending and the crisis
I like the news already. He has commented, and rightly so, that right now the patient need a blood infusion and not short term thing like budget deficit.
How true? When things get tough most of the people start to worry about the short term things like cutting cost, manage the deficit. This is true for most of the organizations. A contrarian view would be to actually increase the spending on fixing the root cause and in the preparation for the future. This is the time to build for the future and not save for present.
I think this will differentiate the leaders from the pack across organization that will reap the rewards when the tide turns.
Are you ready? This is the question that needs to be asked by each organization rather than are you saving enough?
