Sometimes It’s Alright To Be A Perfectionist
5P THE WORLD’S GREATEST MANAGEMENT METHOD: ?http://bit.ly/5Pwebinar
Situation
Perfectionism or the perfectionist can be hard to deal with but you definitely want them on your team. Eventually every piece of work must go out into the world but there are some who have trouble trying to let go of their work in it’s current form.
“It could be better”, they say as they tweak something and tighten up something else.
Perfectionists are valuable when it comes to detail work and catching flaws before they become public. A fine example of a perfectionist role is that of the editor. Someone who naturally dives into the text seeking typos and grammar. Their eye for detail is something to admire but there are some who take it a step further, a step too far.
Mission
