Ease of use (ref: Adam Bosworth)

I read this post by Adam Bosworth on his blog, and I find it refreshing and MECE (Mutually exclusive, collectively exhaustive) and appropriately sloppy :-). The Takeaways are

1. Simple and Sloppy wins over Exhaustive and Formal
2. Information overload is here to stay - Judgement and Reputation will form the basis of the solution to this problem

How do you take these principles to Management Consulting?

1. No Prince2 / PMI inspired formal engagement process
2. Plan outcomes and work back through outputs and still further back to efforts
3. Get just enough information to get to the next effort/output
4. Quick and dirty processes: No Memos or email please; Call or Skype the right guy/girl, then walk to the source
