About the Summary
In their book, Move Fast and Fix Things: The Trusted Leader’s Guide to Solving Hard Problems, authors Frances Frei and Anne Morriss use the standard five day work week as a template for solving difficult problems in an organization. They begin by asking their readers to evaluate their own organizations and to determine which of four quadrants their organizations belong to. These quadrants help explain the level of trust within an organization as well as the speed with which things move. Ideally a company can move fast and fix what needs fixing, but many organizations end up either stagnating or moving fast recklessly, breaking things along the way. In their book, they lay out a five step process for identifying and fixing problems with each step representing a specific day of the week.
