Problem:

Controlling the resource of time.

-too much on the calendar forces the organization to do too many events at a 50% proficiency rate versus doing what is important to that unit at a 90% proficiency

– Creates improper planning timelines for large-scale resources to be applied against that event. For example, ammunition, fuel, food, and land for large organizations for multiple days. 

–  Technology erodes calendared events even further with the ability of the technology to make inflight adjustments or competing priorities. (Cell phone groups pin balling things around)

– Every second is accounted for at the higher echelon which give zero time to the subordinate unit. 

– We are losing the ability to be thorough and discipline

Solution:

– Ensure events have a deliberate recovery time before another major event. 

– Make sure there is time on the calendar for absolutely nothing to be done. 

– Outlaw text groups during the work day for zero deviation and thoroughness.
