Not too long ago, I heard a podcast by the legendary Leah Neaderthal where I learned the volleyball term of being “in system,” or “out of system.” 🏐 Personally I dropped out of high school volleyball club after I accidentally jammed my finger during practice and had to miss a piano recital that I prepped all semester for-- something that didn't bode so well with my parents 🤦🏻♀️ Anyway, I learned that being “in system” refers to a situation where the team’s initial pass or dig is of high quality, allowing the setter to have all attacking options available, leading to a higher likelihood of scoring a point. Conversely, being "out of system" means the team is unable to execute their planned play due to a poor pass or other disruptions, forcing them into a more improvised and less effective offensive strategy. I thought about how well this applies to startups, particularly in building a marketing strategy. Relatedly, I have RUTHLESSLY been challenging the philosophy of “growth at all costs.” Check out my newest "Nice Advice" to learn more → https://lnkd.in/dtKYgrA2 The Company Advice #PlayBookNicely
