Complexity is a dimension of business that is hugely under-discussed, and yet, it’s a powerful determining factor that leads to businesses sinking every single day.

Whether adding complexity looks like an employee, a bonus offer, a scheduling system, or a goal, is it adding up in a way that gives you a satisfying return? If you’ve made decision after decision to add small amounts of complexity to your business, but now find yourself crumbling under its weight. It’s time to assess the true cost of building complexity into your business and what you can do about it.

Join me on this episode to learn why we’re inclined to underestimate the cost of complexity, and examples of how adding complexity sneaks up on us. I’m sharing what happens when you don’t account for complexity in advance, and how I’ve gone against the grain when it comes to adding complexity to my business.
