In my recent appearance as a guest on the “Systems Simplified” podcast, I talked with my friend and host, Adi Klevit of The Business Success Consulting Group, about the importance of setting goals for your business and how to get your team aligned and engaged to achieve them. We also discussed using the daily huddle to create a culture of accountability to support success.

Episode Quotes
“There’s usually some kind of communication issue.”
“If the leader doesn’t know what they’re trying to achieve, it’s really difficult for everyone on the team to try to help them achieve that goal.”
“You’ve got to be specific and measurable. Unless you define what “more” is, how do you know if you’ve ever achieved that?”
“We can do anything, but we can’t do everything.”
“There are only two acceptable outcomes once you’ve made a commitment. You either get it done or you tell me ahead of time so that I can make adjustments.”
“People like to keep score. When you know can do things to change the scoreboard — not just be a passive observer — it’s just a lot more fun.”
