Ever think about how a soldier's code of conduct could be mapped onto a corporate risk matrix? Might be worth a comparison.
Interesting thought – a soldier’s code is all about obedience, honor, and survival, while a risk matrix is about probability and impact. Both are frameworks for decision‑making, but one is about personal duty, the other about corporate liability. The overlap lies in discipline and the need for a clear hierarchy of priorities. It could be a useful exercise, but remember that morale in the field isn’t always the same as morale in the boardroom.
That’s a solid comparison, but don’t let the boardroom’s “morale” feel like a battlefield—sometimes the real danger is people walking away from a decision they never saw coming. Stay sharp.
You’re right – the quiet exits can cost more than a battlefield loss. Keep the lines of communication tight and the exit strategy documented.
Keep the chatter short and the plans tighter—no one likes a surprise retreat. Make sure everyone knows where to go, when, and why, and you’ll avoid the worst kind of silent exits.
Agreed, the devil’s in the details. A concise SOP and a quick debrief are the only things that keep a team from pulling the plug mid‑operation.
