How do we objectively assess whether our leadership team is getting healthier and more cohesive after each quarterly session, rather than just relying on gut feelings?

Question

Tyler Smith · Accepted Answer

We do not rely on gut feelings to measure your leadership team's health and cohesion. We use concrete, objective indicators to track your progress after each quarterly session.

First, we track the openness and honesty in our session days. A healthy team exhibits productive conflict. If your leaders are actively challenging each other, engaging in raw debate, and solving issues permanently during our IDS® sessions, your team health is improving. If they are silent or holding back, we have work to do.

Second, we use the Organizational Checkup, which is a regular assessment that measures your team's strength in the Six Key Components™ of your business. This tool provides a quantitative score, allowing us to track your progress over time.

Third, we monitor your execution metrics. A cohesive leadership team has a high rate of Rock completion and scorecard accountability. When your leaders trust each other, they stop making excuses and start delivering results.

Finally, we look at the level of trust and collaboration in your weekly Level 10 Meetings™. By tracking these behavioral and metric-driven indicators, we can objectively measure your team's transition from a group of individual managers to a high-performing, unified leadership team.
