Commentary by management consultant Michael Wade on Leadership, Ethics, Management, and Life
I've noticed great wisdom, once spoken, is often so obvious it seems like common sense. Though truth was there, no one else saw it well enough to speak it. Once spoken, everyone wonders why they didn't say that.
Dan,And think of how often we look back at disasters and wonder, "Why didn't anyone see how flawed the reasoning was?"Michael
I often ask the question "At what point was this a good idea?" Yet I find few understand what I mean. "In the aftermath you'll always find the wisdom that should have proceeded it." "Hindsight bemoans wisdom"
