Interesting reflection on how speed and change in leadership intersect, Mark. I'm frequently working with new CEOs (it often triggers a desire to re-set strategy), and I've noticed one of two reflections:

1. "We're too slow, too passive" (the new CEO wishes to accelerate decisions, action and 'time to results')

2. "We act too rapidly, without thinking things through" (the new CEO wishes to slow things down, go back to first principles, and work out criteria for the best decisions)

Getting BOTH just right is the Goldilocks moment, of course.
