To lead is to decide before the situation is clear.

Most undertakings fail neither on strategy nor on execution, but in the space between: where everyone hears the same thing and still understands something different. I call that state Decision Fog.

It clears neither through more analysis nor through more information, but in acting. The different pictures come onto the table, you take the first step together, and you correct against what shows up. That is how a decision comes to have effect.

If much gets decided where you are and little comes of it, we should talk about it.
