Summary

If you are the owner and CEO of your organization, or if you are the intern in an organization, I guarantee you, what we're going to talk about today can apply to you where you're at. Oftentimes the larger an organization becomes, the less we think about our work as a contribution. But in reality, if your work isn't a contribution, if it's not driving some outcome, if it's not pointed towards some results, then all you're doing is filling a seat. To be intentional about contributions, we're going to focus on three contributions the impact-driven leader should be focused on: A Compelling Vision No one follows a leader who doesn’t know where they’re going. Good leaders catch a vision. Great leaders cast vision, life-changing leaders coach vision. An Environment of Unity Recognition and encouragement have to be a priority. Repetition of the mission, vision, and values. Every team member should know and agree on: Why does the business exist? Where is this business going? What does this business stand for? A Framework For Accountability And Support Properly set expectations and regularity communicate Unspoken expectations create front-loaded resentment Expectations without accountability are useless Accountability without expectations is miserable Five questions that will help you provide accountability and support: What is your top priority right now? What does winning look like? What are the blockers that are getting in the way? How can I help with those blockers? When should we follow up? Remember to Rate, Review, Subscribe, and Share!

If you are the owner and CEO of your organization, or if you are the intern in an organization, I guarantee you, what we're going to talk about today can apply to you where you're at.

Oftentimes the larger an organization becomes, the less we think about our work as a contribution. But in reality, if your work isn't a contribution, if it's not driving some outcome, if it's not pointed towards some results, then all you're doing is filling a seat.

To be intentional about contributions, we're going to focus on three contributions the impact-driven leader should be focused on:

A Compelling Vision

No one follows a leader who doesn’t know where they’re going.
Good leaders catch a vision. Great leaders cast vision, life-changing leaders coach vision.

An Environment of Unity

Recognition and encouragement have to be a priority.
Repetition of the mission, vision, and values.
Every team member should know and agree on:

Why does the business exist?
Where is this business going?
What does this business stand for?
A Framework For Accountability And Support

Properly set expectations and regularity communicate
Unspoken expectations create front-loaded resentment
Expectations without accountability are useless
Accountability without expectations is miserable
Five questions that will help you provide accountability and support:

What is your top priority right now?
What does winning look like?
What are the blockers that are getting in the way?
How can I help with those blockers?
When should we follow up?
