<![CDATA[Some businesses don’t have an execution problem.]]>Some businesses don’t have an execution problem. They have a model problem.
In hospitality especially, there are operators working incredibly hard just to maintain shrinking margins. More effort. More pressure. Same outcome.
At some point, working harder stops being a strategy. 👉

Those are very different conversations.

The real question becomes whether the model can be restructured or if it's time to walk away entirely.

At that point, the problem is rarely “people need to work harder”. 🥴

It’s usually that the model has become internally contradictory, i.e. when the business needs increasing effort just to maintain the same position.
