The Principles of Vigilant Leadership: #2 Strategies for Getting Unstuck: “What Must Be True” Action Planning

Last time we spoke about Vigilant Leadership, we covered the first principle, The Landscape Reality Check. This time, we’re diving into the second principle, Strategies for Getting Unstuck: “What Must Be True” Action Planning. That is, how to action against the goals you established in The Landscape Reality Check. This involves looking at some common goals, setting up accountability checks, having a dashboard where you track & prioritize, and more. Here’s a small sample of what you will hear in this episode:

• What your role is as the leader?
• The truth about strategy
• Why you want people to present all the possible barriers
• Why you need to have a tracking document
• The 3 strategies you need for getting unstuck
