\"RemanI was working on a project a few weeks ago when I overheard a colleague: \u201cNo one wants to get on the Titanic.\u201d<\/em>
\nIt was an interesting thing to say. And, I couldn\u2019t get its relevance out of my head.
\nYou\u2019re familiar with this iconic ocean liner\u2019s story. Knowing the fate, do you think you\u2019d get on it? Probably not.
\nBut what about the notoriety of being a part of a maiden voyage? Or experiencing luxury accommodations unlike anything else on the market?
\nIt\u2019s still a sinking ship.<\/em>
\nExperience shapes decision. It really doesn\u2019t matter if it\u2019s the firsthand knowledge kind or outsider input.
\nYou, your customers, and your employees all have this in common. You make choices toward a positive outcome \u2013 and try your best to steer clear of anything else. And if you aren\u2019t looking ahead (or around), it\u2019s pretty hard to avoid the bad altogether.
\nThink with me for a minute:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Frustrated with a vendor not supporting you in the ways you\u2019d like? How often and in what ways are you communicating? No one wants to be in a one-way partnership.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  2. One of your best techs quit and you\u2019re having trouble filling the void? When was the last time you had one-on-one reviews with the rest of your team? No one wants to refer their hardworking friends if they themselves are unhappy.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  3. Scheduled a meeting or company outing and not everyone attended? Did you ask for opinions or help beforehand?\u00a0 No one wants to participate in\u00a0a culture that doesn\u2019t align.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  4. Lost a new customer that Google sent to the competitor next door? Have you checked your online reviews and rankings lately? No one wants to buy from a business they can\u2019t easily find or learn about.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    No one wants to get on the Titanic because you know how it ends. Even for the most imperfect of companies, though, I argue that it\u2019s not over. Your business\u2019 biggest challenge doesn\u2019t define its future \u2013 unless you allow it to take you down.
