Does delaying /procrastination has any merits ? Intuitively most of us will answer in a big negative ..in current fast paced and dynamic scenario , where most of the categories are super competitive and hard fought and things change from morning till evening , most of the organizations expect their leaders to be agile and super quick on the ground .While this is much needed but not at the cost oftaking a half baked decision without enough thought/conviction . Unfortunately speed to market/nimble thinking has started getting much more priority (than required )over quality and the strength of the decision - this may be quite worrying trend in the long term . The cost of delaying the decision by some time will always be far lower vs taking a rushed one without necessary thought, analysis and alignment .The other advantage of procrastination (specially when you are stuck on something ) is that it gives you time to re-energize and gather your thought and helps in getting innovative winning ideas on the table when you approach the problem later in a fun and relaxed environment . Hence specially in strategic /long term/high impact /high stakes /high cost situations/decisions , it may be worth it to procrastinate /" "sit on the problem "for some time .
