Crystal Davis - “LEAD Lean”

IBGR.Network - PROFIT Radio. Everything a business owner needs to start, grow or exit a business. GROW WITH US.

INTRODUCTION - It’s that time of year when most people are somewhat hopeful as they close out 2020 and welcome in 2021. Even if they don’t set new year’s resolutions, they have been somewhat reflective and have some intentions for the future. The problem is that you don’t know what your teams/associates are thinking with regards to your business goals for 2021. So why don’t take this opportunity to realign your business goals with the team to get them excited about accomplishing the mission. 

Show Objectives - The Why 
Aligning the company mission statement and your (CEO) leadership mission statement improves the strategic alignment, helps to balance the priorities, set effective performance goals, and align rewards and recognition. 

Key Issues - Owner Perspective:
You need employees that are as bought into your vision and mission as you are. That is GOLD! That level of engagement, energy and commitment is key to running a successful business. Get them aligned and performing at a high level, then reward them for achieving and exceeding results. 

What You Need to Know - The What

•  Successful CEOs/leaders have align their mission statements with their core values. This makes it easy for them to walk the talk. People will follow a leader that is committed to their why especially when it resonates with them.  
• 
  

What You Need to Do - The How

• Revisit and recommit to your mission statement -- Don’t have one - create one
• Create a tagline that becomes the rallying cry for the team (e.g. Just Do It, Think Different, Never Settle)
• Define and assess the behaviors that align with your mission and core values - you will attract the right talent to drive high performance
