I was searching and battling with my thoughts to find what should be the very first post to launch this blog. Just like everybody else, I also wanted something sensational, something thoughtful, disruptive...this and that..so many thoughts to collate with so high expectations from first post.
and then finally, it came as lightening, why should it be a complex post full of confusing management jargon, why can't it be plain and simple truth.
Yes, the truth - that is where all the universe shrank to this simple thought - what are organizations made of..what is it that work space compose of. ? Answer: It's the people, it's the team, it's the leadership.

Answer: In the weakest link
Yes, folks, no matter how complex you want it, the answer is simple - A chain is only as strong as its weakest link.
What is it to do now ? Invest to strengthen the weakest link.

Repeat the iteration and keep strengthening the links to establish wonderful Chain of Command.
