‘Business is a team sport! Everyone must up their skills and teamwork in order to achieve the future vision and goals!’
‘Role clarity is critical! No pro team would show up to a game without knowing their positions. If they did, it would look more like a free-for-all than professional play!’
‘The more psychological safety you generate, the more you can request people to perform outside their comfort zones. It requires courage to step up and take more ownership for delivering outcomes. That’s why they need safety!’
‘… being effective at leading innovation means that you have to master your ability to spend a lot of time in discomfort, and make it safe for your team to be in discomfort right alongside you.’
‘You must renegotiate if the outcome cannot be reached with the current plan.’
‘To have the culture you desire, you have to build good leadership habits!’
‘Recognizing when things go off track is key! You know you are off track when achieving the intended outcome isn’t possible without a significant change.’
‘Don’t offer anything you can’t or won’t actually do.’
‘Making clear, conscious, effective agreements is a foundational skill. It’s worth practicing to achieve mastery.’
‘Agreements are a process, not a promise. As situations change, so must the agreements. There is way too much change always happening in business to consider anything an unchangeable ‘promise.’
‘Delegation is a two-way process with mutual responsibility. When everyone involved is responsible to generate a good agreement, it takes the pressure off any one person to get it right.’
