<description>Hey Elliot - &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;great point. I&#039;ve been in many meetings where someone in a leadership position mentions &quot;we should do X&quot;. Then for some unknown reason, they believe that &quot;X&quot; is being doing and will be delivered soon.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;You want someone to work on something, make it a formal request with proper planning.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;thanks for stopping by!</description>

<description>That is also a pet peeve of mine - and one I see too often - &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The one other killer Iwould add - is the leader who thinks that because it was mentioned in that meeting - it will be done. No one is responsible - no one is accountable&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Ummm sorry - that won&#039;t work - &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Perhaps it is part of your courage one - afraid to actually commit - &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;But in some cases - I am sure that it is just poor execution skills - and that can suck the soul out of a team as the &quot;why bother...&quot; fugue starts to seep in&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Thanks!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Elliot Ross</description>
