LONG VERSION Session Description Do you remember the last major initiative you watched die in your organization? Did it go down with a loud crash? Or was it slowly and quietly suffocated by other competing priorities? By the time it finally disappeared, it's likely no one even noticed. What happened? The whirlwind of urgent activity required to keep YOUR BUSINESS running day-to-day devoured all the time and energy you needed to invest in executing your strategy.
• Focus on the Wildly Important. Exceptional execution starts with narrowing the focus— clearly identifying what must be done, or nothing else you achieve really matters much.
• Act on the Lead Measures. Twenty percent of activities produce eighty percent of results. The highest predictors of goal achievement are the 80/20 activities that are identified and codified into individual actions and tracked fanatically.
• Keep a Compelling Scoreboard. People and teams play differently when they are keeping score, and the right kind of scoreboards motivate the players to win.
• Create a Cadence of Accountability. Great performers thrive in a culture of accountability that is frequent, positive, and self-directed. Each team engages in a simple weekly process that highlights successes, analyzes failures, and course-corrects as necessary, creating the ultimate performance-management system.
