Description: Breaking the Fear Barrier by Tom Rieger Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description A companys worst enemy isnt always the competition. Sometimes its the fear that lives within its own walls. Publisher Description The greatest threat to an organisations success is not always the competition. Often, it is what a company does to itself. Because of fear, companies become plagued with barriers and bureaucracy that limit success, crush employees, and infuse frustration and a sense of futility across the enterprise. It starts with a narrowing of focus, which leads to the first level of bureaucracy: parochialism. Parochialism exists when departments begin to view the world through the filter of their own little silo. As businesses grow, the second level of bureaucracy is reached: territorialism. Territorialism is about controlling those inside the silo. The third and final level of bureaucracy is empire building, which is a response to perceived threats to a departments ability to be self-sufficient. These barriers cost organisations a fortune in inefficiency, turnover, waste, and demoralisation. Tearing down these barriers is difficult, but it can be done. Parochialism can be eliminated by resetting rules and policies and refocusing on the ultimate mission of the organisation. Territorialism can be eliminated by creating true empowerment. Empire building can be addressed through shared goals and a set of guiding principles that help act as a referee in decision making. By doing all these things, an organisation can become fearless and unstoppable. Author Biography Tom Rieger is a former Gallup employee.
