Is your business too big to be small but too small to be big? This is a growth phase of many small companies that Newport Board Group is very familiar with - No Man's Land℠.
Newport Board Group Chairman of the Board and author of the book "No Man's Land", Doug Tatum, talked to a group of CEOs on this growth phase many businesses face earlier this month in Charlotte. Newport opened their Carolinas practice this past September.
Bill Reading, the Managing Director of Newport's Carolinas practice, also weighed in on this subject. When commenting on companies stuck in No Man's Land℠, Bill said, "They’re so immersed in the business, dealing with the tyranny of the urgent, that they have no time to … think strategically.”
The Charlotte Observer went on explain the 4 categories of No Man's Land℠ which are detailed in Doug Tatum's book; market misalignment, outgrowing your management, outgrowing your model, and outgrowing your money.
