How do artificial deadlines affect your business?

In this episode of the podcast  “No Tie C-Suite”,  we look at a question raised by a listener about the impact of deadlines on a business and consider:

• Whether artificially introducing deadlines has a positive or negative impact on the commitment and productivity of those who have to undertake any work as a result?
• Are deadlines effective in helping you establish your priorities, structure, and alignment?
• Do artificial deadlines protect the team from outside diversions?
• What are the implications of not using hard deadlines and adopting a more flexible approach and is there a way of mixing different methodologies to gain a better result?

Deadlines (especially artificial ones) in any area of a business can have even indirect impacts on others so it is important for everyone to be informed.  It is also why there is so much value in our panel of experts giving their perspectives by representing different areas of a business.

Our panel in this episode includes:

- Anthony Perl - Marketing

- Yuriy Tyurin - Business systems

- Eyal Ron - IT infrastructure

- Pierre De Villiers - Financial
