Dealing with team members focused on quick wins. How do you ensure sustainable decision-making?
Short-term thinking in teams can undermine long-term success. To steer your team towards sustainable decision-making:
- Set clear, long-term goals. Make sure these are communicated and understood by all team members.
- Reward long-term thinking. Recognize and incentivize behaviors that align with the team's enduring objectives.
- Conduct regular reviews. Assess decisions based on their long-term impact, not just immediate results.

As an ER physician, ensuring sustainable decision-making despite the push for quick wins involves balancing immediate needs with long-term outcomes. For example, prescribing antibiotics might quickly satisfy a patient, but overuse risks resistance. Instead, I assess if antibiotics are truly necessary, educate the patient, and choose treatments that won't compromise future health. Communicating the "why" behind decisions helps align the team towards sustainable care, even under pressure. Focus on root solutions, not just instant fixes—prioritize patient education and evidence-based protocols to maintain quality care.

You can implement dynamics that connect the team with the company's purpose and vision, promoting both individual and collective commitment. I do this through transformative questions that guide reflection and align efforts: 1. What does the organizational purpose represent for us and how can we live it in our daily tasks? 2. How does my role contribute to the achievement of strategic objectives? 3. What personal goals can I set that align with the long-term vision of the organization? 4. How can I develop my skills to add extraordinary value? 5. What concrete actions can I take to strengthen my team and the organization? Ask your team the right questions and extraordinary results will come??

I start by aligning the team on broader goals, showing how sustainable decisions contribute to lasting results. For example, I encourage discussions on potential risks of short-term fixes, such as technical debt or client dissatisfaction. I also use data to illustrate the benefits of a long-term approach, like improved efficiency or stronger customer relationships. By balancing immediate needs with future outcomes, I guide the team toward decisions that ensure both short-term progress and long-term stability.
