Welcome. Today we're focusing on a
simple idea. When leaders inspire the
why and rigorously manage the how,
change takes root. I'll show you a
practical system you can use. Most
organizations overindex on plans and
under index on purpose. That's the
adoption gap. We'll close it by pairing
purpose with clear operating rhythms.
Here's our flow. I'll map ideas to
actions so you can implement
immediately. Purpose isn't a poster,
it's a filter. When people know the why,
they self-correct and make better local
decisions.
This is a cascade. Don't start with
plans. Start with purpose and
principles, then translate to ranked
priorities, then plans.
By making purpose and ranked priorities
visible, you stop thrash and cut cycle
time dramatically.
Policies deter, norms drive. When peers
hold peers accountable, behavior sticks
between supervisory check-ins. Keep
norms short, specific, and rehearsed.
Track them lightly each week to
normalize the behavior.
You learn your way into change. Tighten
feedback loops so reality informs the
next move.
Use lightweight rhythms. Consistency
matters more than ceremony.
Readiness predicts adoption. If people
don't see value, don't feel capable, or
lack resources, your roll out will
stall. Culture is the language, rituals,
and symbols you repeat. Align them with
strategy to build momentum.
Structure wins. A simple 90-day cadence
prevents drift and forces learning.
Start small, visible, and rhythmic.
Momentum is a management choice.
Pick a few indicators. Make them public
and actionable.
Guardrails help you stay honest. If
everything is priority number one,
nothing is.
If you want help implementing, I run
workshops and share templates. Join the
