One of the great challenges of business is how to go from idea to delivery. It’s easy to talk about ideas but turning those into a finished product requires much more than talk. It can be daunting to deliver. There’s the risk of failure. There’s the fear of unknowns–of surprises that can create obstacles to success. Going from idea to delivery is truly challenging!

Ultimately project management is about how to deliver results but leaders of projects and teams need more than just work breakdown structures and Gantt charts. One of my favorite books of this year provides great insights for all of us who seek to lead and deliver. I recently had the real privilege of spending some time with Peter Sims, author of a great new book entitled Little Bets: How Breakthrough Ideas Emerge from Small Discoveries, and look forward to sharing that discussion with you in this episode.
