BIG's Blog: What did you hear?

As a child playing a game, you may remember one person whispering a sentence to another person. This sentence is passed down the line until it gets to the last person. The last person repeats the sentence they heard. By the end of the passing, of course, the information is nothing like what the person originally stated. That game made us laugh as children. But, this same concept happens in organizations today.

If a project or task is important, be sure that you communicate directly with the person who is assigned the responsibility. If not, the outcome of your project may not be what you expected. The final result may not be a laughing matter.
