Last month, we finished the book The 4 Disciplines of Execution by Chris McChesney, Sean Covey, and Jim Huling. The book offers a roadmap for organizations to successfully accomplish their goals through proven practices that have been tested over many years.
Discipline 1: Focus on The Wildly Important Goal (WIG)
Discipline 2: Act on the Lead Measures
Discipline 3: Keep a Compelling Scoreboard
Discipline 4: Create a Cadence of Accountability
While reading about Discipline 2, as a team, we tracked our leads and lags for our organization's goal and report on their status whenever we have our regular team meetings. It keeps us more accountable and always in sight of our goals.
