The psychology of the plan

All seeing Ian has a new job and is bringing his unique, assertive management style to some old school health charity. He is a master of tough love management, revels in the havoc it causes, loves the success it brings.

ASI's schtick is 'planning'. That is the key to it all. Planning, organisation, time for thinking. These are the things that bring you calm, clarity and success. Even the small things, tidy desk, organised files, to do list, can have a huge impact.

I love his revelling in his authority. He is a master of saying it how it is and dealing with the consequences like a grown up. A great role model is All Seeing Ian.
