Moving walkway

Common to large airport terminals, moving walkways can improve a traveler’s pace along a thoroughfare.

Consider how this relates to working alone versus working within an organization.

Alone, your pace is your pace. Each step is the result of your singular effort.

Within an organization, however, it’s possible that your forward motion is complemented by the forward motion of the larger structure. It’s like walking atop a moving walkway.

There’s a tradeoff, of course. In an organization, your influence on direction can be limited.

On your own, there are fewer guard rails, and you get to set the course.

Ultimately, how you like to operate and where you want to go will determine how you choose to travel.
