For me, trim tab was dead after about a minute and a half of conversation, but we weren’t looking to crush anything in single strokes. Part of respecting the human and looking at how we will fit the puzzle pieces together is allowing the people enough time to come to terms when an idea they hold dear has become a “dead idea walking.” So we delayed making the final decision until we’d had a couple more meetings and let the new reality settle in. Ultimately, rather than the trim tab, we went with a weight-offset approach to create lift.
