"How do we get this done today" is very different from "what is the 'best' way to do this."

  • "How do we get this done today" is very different from "what is the 'best' way to do this."
    • 'Best' implies things like "how could this go wrong in a month".
    • "Here's how this will go wrong in 6 months" feels like stop energy to someone looking for "how do we get momentum on this today."
    • They're two very different questions and frames.
    • Ultimately you need some contextual mix of both; but the two different approaches will clash by default.
