After many years of inaction N4575C departs Weston for Coventry for maintenance.
Jane Fonda and others at Fire Drill Friday protest against inaction on climate change, by the Capitol.
A little over a year after the property had been flooded out, it happened again.
The property manager and maintenance manager didn't answer calls. The after-hours emergency contact did answer but said they didn't know what to do (and then buttdialed me while they were watching porn).
Someone was to come out the following day to see how bad this bout was and figure out what to do next. No one ever came by.

KONICA MINOLTA DYNAX 5D
After a few years of inaction, I installed a new Li-ion NP-400 battery in my 2005 Konica Minolta DSLR Dynax 5D to replace the dead original one, and I did a small series of pictures with the two KM zoom lenses to re-evaluate the small Sony 6 MP CCD (still not a CMOS) sensor and optics.
The KM Dynax 5D was the latest DSLR body released by Konica Minolta before to be sold to SONY Corp.

📖 The pervasive inaction by organizations such as ‘SolidarityNow’ in Greece, despite their ostensible mission to support refugees, is deeply troubling. My comprehensive article sheds light on this issue, documenting my decade-long struggle for legal aid and survival support, which has been met with obstinate neglect and outright hostility. Read my detailed article below to uncover the intricate challenges and systemic failings encountered. 👇

Your support remains crucial. Act now. 🙏 💔 🆘

Meanwhile across town, a counter-rally was occurring, called by the Federal Opposition, supported by talk radio shock jocks. The crowd seemed edgy and anxious.
Estimated to be 4000 people, upwards, although it didn't seem to me as big a crowd as Belmore Park.
The future abhors inaction.
Yet most organizations become trapped within it, driven a leadership team that is frozen in place, unable or unwilling to move forward. The results are predictable.
Most often, it comes through denial.
"There is no reason for any individual to have a computer in his home." Ken Olsen, CEO, DEC, 1977
Digital Equipment froze in place when the personal computer (PC) came along, famously refusing to get involved. The result was predictable as they eventually were bought out for a fraction of their value by a PC company, Compaq. That company then disappeared because it too froze in place, refusing the accept the direct-to-consumer business model pioneered by Dell Computer! (Incidentally, one of the biggest bookings in my still-forming career as a speaker occurred in 1993 when DEC booked me on a 7-city 'roadshow' to highlight the growing importance of the Internet. At least they got that trend right!)
What are the other causes of inaction? Uncertainty, arrogance, hubris, complacency, resistance to change, inadequate resources - the sins of leadership failure are vast. And as is often the case, denial of the speed with which a dramatic, transformative change to future circumstances is often the root cause. And as I will often comment on stage and in my posts, there are many people who just don't like the future and what it represents - but will end up there anyways!
There is a high cost to business inaction - missed opportunities, a reduced ability to respond to emerging competitive threats, loss of market share, and an acceleration of new risk. Worst case, it leads to bankruptcy or acquisition. Adaptec was a well-known data storage company but didn't keep up with the trends redefining the industry (the forthcoming dominance of cloud technology), and went from $2 billion in sales to $35 million in a matter of years. Oops.
How do you counter this? Accept the future, align with it, understand the trends - be proactive! Be proactively strategic by aligning to changing customer needs, market trends, and competitive threats. Spend the time to understand what's next and what to do about it. Put in place an effective trends radar - a model for aligning to the future that I've been sharing with clients since 2007 and before.
And focus on your speed, agility, and flexibility!
The key thing is, so many organizations learned how to be action-oriented during the early days of Covid, and it's important not to lose the unique forward-oriented culture which emerge. Think about it : speed and action were everywhere. We implemented e-commerce platforms at speed and built sophisticated delivery and supply chain systems. Manufacturing companies quickly realigned their process to manufacture masks and shields. Churches learned how to do virtual services. Think about what we witnessed - the verb 'action' was dominant!
10 years of change in 6 months
Major trends accelerated
Organizations learned something new about speed
Agility and flexibility became a necessity
Business models shifted faster
An attitude that it can't be done was shattered by necessity
Decision-making paralysis was obliterated
The slow structure common to organizations was put under a microscope
Old barriers to new ideas disappeared
"Get it done" became the rallying cry
The key issue for everyone now is - how do we sustain the momentum? That's what I've been emphasizing to my clients - keep moving, and capitalize on the lessons learned.
The bottom line is this. "Inaction is a choice" implies that when faced with a challenge or opportunity, a leadership team is consciously deciding not to pursue it. That's negligence! That is a decision that means sticking with the status quo. What mystifies me is when they do this, and yet know it will have consequences. They know that their inaction will cost them a loss in customers, market share, revenue, reputation, talent, innovation, and competitive advantage. I've never understood why.
"Action is a verb" implies an organization that is fully prepared to challenge the status quote, and move forward at speed to invent a new reality. It is driven by a leadership team that is defined by courage, vision, strategy, innovation, collaboration, communication, feedback, learning, quality, and reliability. It's not easy, but necessary in the face of transformative, disruptive trends.
Today, at this very moment, you are probably faced with a decision that needs to be made.
Your choice is inaction or action.
Get moving!
