'http://fitnessbusinesspodcast.com Chuck talks about the concept of distributed decision making and how it works in the context of a fitness business. - How to turn employees into stakeholders - How distributed decision making can transform your fitness business - How to measure performance in a business using distributed decision making Some of the gym owners I’m aware of … I’ve spoken a lot at the Climbing Wall Association, and they have, some of the bigger gyms have people who are in charge of nothing but birthday parties. That’s what they do, birthday parties. And the principle here is in distributed decision making, the principles, there’s two principles, one is, the first one is that the more input I have in a decision, the more likely I am to own that decision. Pretty common sense stuff, but we don’t allow for it too often. Usually it’s some guy in a tie, some fancy person in an office who’s coming out of his office for three seconds to tell other people what to do, to give them directions, and then they walk back into their office. And I have no ownership in that decision whatsoever, but instead of managing me and coming out of the office and telling me what to do, the second principle is decisions should be made locally whenever possible, and it’s almost always possible.
