This is a great topic Josh. I liked the different angles you brought up and using terms like “strategic waiting or inaction” and comparing that to simple procrastination versus truly taking action…. Good things to think about and good questions to ask myself…! Thanks!
“active patience” - I love it. Sometimes you need to let situations play out to see how one’s direct reports deal with ambiguity or take charge of an issue. Some situations are high-high on the importance/urgent matrix but most are not. I will endeavor to look for opportunities to practice “active patience” at work and at home.
