Reference #206: The First 90 Days

When diagnosing a new organisation, a leader should ask her direct reports the same five questions:

What are the biggest challenges the organisation is facing (or will face again in the near future)?
Why is the organisation facing these challenges?
What are the most promising unexploited opportunities for growth?
What would need to happen for the organisation to exploit the potential of these opportunities?
If you were me, what would you focus on?
