Scope
Where managers lack control over the vision and/or process
Creep’s personalized license plate generates lots of funny looks everywhere he goes
The more people involved, your goals can get bigger, more diluted in meaning, and harder to manage. This can happen to programs, projects, meetings or even something as simple as the lunch order. Planosaurus helps organizations learn to stay focused so Creep doesn’t sneak up on you.
Risk
Where potential problems are not seen or blatantly ignored
Quicksand likes to prank the other monsters by hiding things and making them search for hours
Many of the challenges collaborative groups struggle with are predictable and preventable with a little work up front. Mitigating risk is core to our approach and saves money and aspirin. Planosaurus helps organizations make reducing risk a way of life so collaborative productivity doesn’t sink into Quicksand.
