Linear Progress Slows Over Time
The limits to action structure results when the there is some constraint on the a resource required to move the current state in the direction of the goal.
Strategy
If you’re creating a goal seeking structure there are three major aspects that should be investigated at the outset.
- Are there sufficient resources so that progress isn’t limited by a lack of resources;
- How will you be aware of excess resources as the project reaches its goal.
- If the time to reach the desired state is lengthy this may turn into a Drifting Goals scenario where one is willing to settle for less.
