The Obvious and Not-So-Obvious



When considering why an individual or team is not doing the obvious, it is helpful to explore the following:

  • Is the obvious truly obvious?
  • When was the last time it was tried?
  • What were the results?
  • Will they be punished, however informally, for doing the obvious?
  • Is their current conduct a solution to another problem?
  • How do they benefit from not doing the obvious?
  • Is there an aspect to their current behavior which is not selfish or small but indeed could be seen as altruistic?
