You’re the captain of your ship.

What shape is it in?

Is everyone in your organization doing what’s expected or do employees blame each other for missed deadlines, broken promises and botched assignments?

There’s an African proverb that says, “I take no joy that the hole is in your end of the boat.”

Every organization – no matter how successful – has problems that need fixing.

Are people in your organization working together to fix problems or pointing fingers and taking joy that the hole is not in their department?

Plenty of dysfunctional companies manage to be successful.

Is everyone in your boat unified around your mission, vision, and values? Clarity creates confidence.

How much more successful can you be if everyone is crystal clear about what’s expected of them to achieve the success you say you want?
