How much time do you allow your staff to truly think? This includes planning, reviewing, brainstorming, creativity, decision-making, problem-solving, and both logical and free-form thinking. Yes, even daydreaming.
If your team isn't spending at least a quarter of their time engaged in this kind of thinking, they might not be reaching their full potential.
There’s a well-known story about Henry Ford, founder of the Ford Motor Company. Ford was focused on increasing productivity and hired a consultant to pinpoint areas for improvement in one of his factories.
After inspection, the consultant presented a list of employees he felt were underperforming. Ford was shocked to see a particular name at the top. "You can't fire him," Ford exclaimed.
"Why not?" asked the consultant. "Every time I saw him, he was just sitting there, doing nothing."
"I know," Ford replied. "But he's the most productive guy here. I pay him to think."
For all we know, this individual might have been crucial to Ford’s enduring success.
The reality is that thought holds immense power. It's more influential than words or actions; thoughts inspire, motivate, and lead. They can propel your business further than any other asset.
This is why, in a study by Mike Pedler and Tom Boydell, over half of the top qualities of successful managers were related to thinking skills like mental agility, creativity, learning, and analysis.
If you want your team and business to excel, encourage regular thinking time. And don't be concerned if you catch them daydreaming?"it might just be to your benefit!
