Avoiding the Pitfalls of "No Man's Land"

View Comments (1) | Leave Comment

The term "No Man's Land" (NML) came from WW1 - where soldiers would jump out of their pits and run into machine gun fire trying to get to the next bunker; that space between the bunkers became known as "No Man's Land" - a place you just didn't want to go.

In business there is a term called "No Man's Land" where many businesses get stuck while growing their businesses; and it confuses many owner/managers.

It's interesting (to me at least) how many small businesses with slow growth plans fall prey to NML, while fast growth businesses tend to sail through it. I think it's because the smaller you are, the larger any growth seems, and if you only do it (say, recruit) once or twice a year, you really feel the difference.
