March is a dangerous time for most organizations.

As an Irishman (a real one - I was born and lived there for 40 years), I know that March is supposed to be a lucky time - you know, Paddy's day, 4-leaf clovers, all that stuff.

The reality is that March is the most dangerous month for most organizations, divisions, departments and teams: What you do in the next 30 days will most likely determine your success for the rest of the year.

Look at this chart to see why:

Here's what the chart tells us:

You have three types of activity going on right now:

• The stuff that's taken off and is succeeding (green line)
  
  
• The stuff that's 'just ok' (orange line)
  
  
• The stuff that's going nowhere (red line)
  

By about now (end of Q1, the blue line), these three types of activity will have made themselves known to you - you should be able to distinguish between them - whether they are revenue targets, hiring goals, fund-raising activities, customer service initiatives, leadership development or installing a knowledge management system, you know at this point which activities have got traction, and which haven't.
