Go-go Phase Problems
Normal Problems
                                                   8 companies
  See endless opportunities
  A messy organization chart. Organized around
people, not functions.
  Flexible direction
  Centralized leadership delegating tasks but not
responsibility
  Lots of drive
  Too many priorities
  Equate more sales with success
                  ©Ichak Adizes, Ph.D. 1971-2012
Go-go Phase Problems

Abnormal Problems

  Arrogance
  No responsibilities assigned
  No reaction to change in direction
  No decision-making outside the leader or core
group
  Decisions are reversed by the leader

Their solutions

     "Where did IIdeal IS loser?"
                  find this
  "He is good, executive director
          Ideal but for a son-in-law."
 “Everyone wants to be Cary fishing,
 "He is good, but to take him   Grant.
    Evena want to be Cary Grant”
   to put I worm on a fishing hook."
              Cary Grant.



              ©Ichak Adizes, Ph.D. 1971-2012
What they say
   I throw away to them, they cannot
    even see not to mention to catch

  They slowly adapt to sudden changes
       of organizational structure

    When I wake up at 2am I do not
        have anybody to call


              ©Ichak Adizes, Ph.D. 1971-2012
What they get

     I do not talk on profit but to stay
   normal, otherwise I do not nee profit

  This is not just your toy, 1000 families
  depend on it and earn their living in it
