ARE THEY CONSEQUENCES OR RESULTS?
Perhaps it's just my perspective, but it seems that these days, every newsmagazine and newspaper is featuring articles on subjects that point to an inadvertent but vital lesson for us in life and business. Those pieces that are catching my eye are about a variety of subjects that may not seem directly related to business, but their collective wisdom appears to me as being clear, singular, and blunt. The extremely valuable lesson hitting me right between the eyes is that short-term thinking is only a strategy and not a solution. In fact, I'd like to see that one carved on Mount Rushmore just below the president's faces.
Let's scan some of those headlines. "The dollar has been toppled as the world's leading currency." "American corporate pensions in turbulence." "Wasting public money; the long and expensive road." Behind each of these headlines is a decade's long string of decisions by smart people and forks in the road leading to unintended consequences. The people who made them were probably facing the same kinds of stresses and pressures as you are today. They were business and government leaders who were often dealing with tough situations ranging from sweating over the quarterly numbers to courting a fickle and restless electorate.
In the early 1980's I worked at a TV network with a legendary programmer who's face appeared on the cover of Time magazine over the label; "Man With the Golden Gut." I recall being in a meeting where he said, "let's do that (replace a low rated show) since we can't do any worse than we already are." Well, we found out that we could do worse, much worse. A decision had been made with an eye on next month's Nielsen ratings rather than tackling the more arduous task of hammering out a long-range view to solving fundamental problems. The lesson is worth noting, whether you are running a home based business of one person or a globe-spanning corporation.
In a story often attributed to hard living entertainers such as Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis Jr. there is a line that says, "If I'd known I'd live this long, I would have taken better care of myself." Imagine being a fly in the room with negotiators for the big three auto companies in the 1960s. Promises were being made to the United Auto Workers that they'd have lifetime company paid pensions and health care benefits. The short term result was the desired labor peace and smiles all around the table where everyone felt well taken care of. Today they are all in trouble because they didn't think about what it would mean for all the stakeholders over the long haul. We now know the long term prognosis is trillions of dollars in unfunded liabilities, broken promises and potential bankruptcy. It was a short term strategy, not a real solution.
Another example is our country's airlines which have come to resemble bus lines in the sky. Not only are pension promises casting a long cold shadow, think of the 14 trillion frequent flier miles that they have to account for. Of course, it seemed like a smart promotional idea at the time the programs were created beginning with American Airlines. Sometimes there is a massive disconnect between what we know to be a sustainable long term course and the pressures we feel to "go along to get along." The "comprehensive" immigration reform bill that is now on life support in Washington is a sparkling example of a lack of clear thinking and will on the part of legislators.
Perhaps both business owners and executives have to see the future through a different prism than their counterparts of past decades. Though we all expect and hope to do better than we may have previously, it will often take a different form. One of your most frequent questions should be "how should I process this new development?" It is great and even necessary to dream big. The lesson I take from current developments is that you have to put strong and durable wheels on those dreams—so they roll for the long haul.
About the Author
Nelson Davis was born in Andalusia, Alabama (near Montgomery) and grew up in Niagara Falls, New York. From the age of fourteen on, his burning desire was to get into radio broadcasting. Nelson's career began with a high school internship program and part-time announcing job at a local radio station. From Niagara Falls he moved to a larger station in Ottawa, Ontario, where he continued his formal education with business courses. In addition to disc jockey duties, he became a program director and host of various television shows.
Eleven years later found Nelson in Los Angeles with his hopes of becoming a game show host transformed into learning the production side of television. Freelancing as a discussions show host and producer, he produced and/or directed such diverse projects as a series for PBS, commercials for presidential candidate Ronald Reagan, and a film in Africa.
Mr. Davis joined the NBC TV Network in 1980 as Manager of Mini-series, eventually becoming Director of Daytime Programming. One of his early jobs at NBC TV was Censor for The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. Between NBC and starting his own production company in 1988, Mr. Davis was involved in many interesting projects as a producer. He was hired by Merv Griffin to produce the pilot episode of Jeopardy to bring it back to television; he was Executive Producer of Name That Tune for its rebirth in 1984; and he helped launch the Fashion Channel.
Mr. Davis began Nelson Davis Television Productions with the idea of bringing together special television programming with sponsors who wish to reach a niche audience. His first weekly series was "MAKING IT! Minority Success Stories". The show has been on the air since March 1989 and has received over twenty-five awards and citations from all levels of government and business organizations, including two Emmys as Best Public Affairs series. "MAKING IT!" is broadcast in several California markets and is seen by satellite and cable viewers across the country.
In 1989, Nelson Davis TV Productions also created and co-produced Campus All-Star Challenge, a quiz series for historically black colleges. Sponsored by Honda and broadcast on BET for five years, the program has enabled cash grants of over $2.3 million to be awarded to participating schools. Nelson Davis TV Productions is also proud to have produced children's specials built around oral storytelling, and Black History Notes, which celebrates Black History month.
Nelson is committed to combining his knowledge of television production and marketing to use TV as a medium to communicate positive messages and enable economic empowerment. Among community organizations, Nelson serves as: Los Angeles Area Vice President of the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences; Board of Advisors member for the National Association of Women Business Owners; Board of Directors member of the Pacific Coast Regional Small Business Development Corporation; Member of Santa Monica College Associates. Mr. Davis has also been active with Big Brothers.

APlus in Disconnect by Watson, Alan [Paperback] $31.19 Have you ever pondered why Canadian athletes so often fail to perform at a high level on the world stage? Or why university sport in Canada has long been an afterthought in the national consciousness, resulting in a steady exodus of our most complete and competent studentathletes south of the border? Lured as they are by the most realistic opportunity for fulfilling both their athletic and academic potential, they depart by the thousands each fall, leaving a gigantic hole in the Canadian sports system. Nowhere in the Constitution or in any book of real law, this freak of Canadian nature that has restricted the granting of significant financial aid to our studentathletes keeps the country behind the international starting line. Worse yet, its still going on, full force. Canadian ISBN: 9700978487607 Author: Watson, Alan Binding Type: Paperback Number of Pages: 244 Publication Date: 2008/02/01 Language: English Dimensions: 9.00 x 6.00 x 0.55 inches |
