Elements of the MIND Methodology
The Most Important Number
We start by identifying and aligning your team around your Most Important Number (MIN), which is your overarching measure of success. The correct MIN, and supporting KPIs, get everyone moving in the same direction.
Drivers
Drivers are what your team can leverage to achieve the MIN. Everything is not of equal importance so we help you prioritize your Drivers. These In Focus Drivers are where the team decides where to concentrate their efforts in order to accelerate results.
Actions
Next, we work with your team to identify and commit to the actions that create the greatest value. We call this doing the right work in the right order at the right time. This accountability shifts the focus from activities to outcomes.
MIND Meetings
Regular MIND Meetings are where your team aligns on what is most important and analyzes if their actions are moving the needle. The meetings are where the Methodology becomes a habit and instills a value creation culture.
Additional solutions beyond the QuickStart are…
Linking your culture to value creation
Organizational structure optimization
Outcome based responsibilities for every role
