html Zero Tolerance Protocol: Overload Symptoms

Overload Symptoms

Analysis Paralysis

Our most severe symptom: when you're so busy trying to follow protocol, you forget what you're trying to do.

Causes: excessive paperwork, meetings, and pointless committee meetings.

Cures: ignore the paperwork, skip the meetings, and just do it already.

Treatments

Information Overload

Too many spreadsheets, too many reports, too many... charts.

Causes: too much data, not enough coffee.

Cures: delete some rows, brew a fresh pot.

Data Diet

Procedural Fatigue

When you're too tired of following rules, you just want to go home and watch cat videos.

Causes: too much bureaucracy, not enough flexibility.

Cures: find a cat to watch, forget the rules.
