How do we determine if our current leadership team has the right number of seats and structural stability to begin our initial Focus Day with you, or will we end up redefining our roles on day one anyway?

You do not need a perfect organizational chart to start working with me. In fact, trying to clean up your leadership structure before we begin is a waste of time because we will completely redesign it using the Accountability Chart. What you do need is a core group of three to seven key leaders who are ready to look in the mirror and make hard decisions.

Before our first session, you must have two things in place. First, you need a willingness to let go of legacy titles and egos. We will evaluate everyone based on whether they GWC™ their seats: whether they get it, want it, and have the capacity to do it. Second, you must have enough operational data to know where your business stands today, even if it is disorganized.

We will establish your structure in real time during the initial Focus Day. If you wait until your team is perfectly aligned before you start, you will never begin. My role is to guide you through the discomfort of restructuring from day one, using a proven system to build a stable foundation rather than forcing you to figure it out on your own.
