When I was a kid, I was always asking my parents the question, "why". "Why" do I have to clean my room? "Why" do we have to go? "Why" can't I...? "Why" does this work this way?
A few years ago, I had a flashback to when I was a kid, when my nephew, Levi, who was about 4 at the time asked, "Why" is the electrical dam made out of concrete when concrete and water don't mix? As I fumbled for an answer, I remembered my parents gave me a big yellow book called "Why". And believe me, at that moment the book would have come in mighty handy.
Harvard Business did a study in which they found 85% of us need to know the answer to "Why" before we can process information. So for those in the 15% out there this blog isn't for you. The rest of you might find my observations and comments interesting and if it at all helps you answer your questions of "Why" then will be well worth your time and mine. I don't claim to be an expert, nor a great writer. In fact, I am just someone that has spent a great deal of time working with people and the majority of my 20+ years of management experience helping leaders improve what they do.
