How do you wrap your head and hands around the information that you have?

Information growth has outpaced our ability to manage it. If you – or your team or organization – are like most, you are faced with an information management problem in one form or another.

In my many years working with clients, I have seen information management problems disguise and manifest through different forms and symptoms.

Have you ever overdone it in the gym? Of course, you have. Have you ever celebrated or let off steam at the bar and felt the pain of overindulging the next day? Yep, that too.

At work, it’s called overkill. It means too much of a good thing – people, details, documents, tools, configurations, or (God forbid) meetings.
