Hack Your Bureaucracy

Get Things Done No Matter What Your Role on Any Team

Marina Nitze, Nick Sinai

Focus on the decision-making process before the meeting. All decisions and announcements should be orchestrated ahead of time. Is there a written agenda? Get on it. Is there a vote? Find out ahead of time how each person is voting, and what’s influencing their decision. Share your materials early and often for feedback. If there’s going to be a contentious issue or competing priorities, get time with key executives to hear your pitch one-on-one beforehand.
