I still haven’t edited Show Your Work, the podcast I’m making with Jane Bozarth.

It’s not because I don’t want to. I do. I know what needs doing, and it isn’t particularly complicated. But other things have taken priority, and the editing keeps slipping down the list.

I’ve spent years talking about the gap between knowing and doing in organisations. We make plans, agree on actions and commit to change. Then we wonder why things haven’t happened.

I’m doing exactly the same thing.

Intention is easy. Action requires time, attention and often a decision about what not to do. That’s as true for individuals as it is for organisations.

The podcast remains unedited. Writing about it has apparently become easier than doing it.
