It starts with Purpose. Why you exist, your purpose as an organization. Once there is clarity around purpose, people begin rowing in the same direction.

Healthy organizations are productive.
We believe that healthy companies are effective, and effective companies are productive.
"Productive companies focus on achieving results!"
Healthy organizations employ four important disciplines to increase effectiveness and productivity.
- Healthy organizations build a Cohesive Leadership Team (see teamwork).
- Healthy organizations Create Clarity around Results.
- Healthy organizations Over-Communicate Clarity, and...
- Healthy organizations Reinforce Clarity
Developing these four disciplines are what Patrick Lencioni suggests is the #1 competitive advantage in business.

Healthy Boards
“Everything rises and falls on leadership.”
John Maxwell
When the topic of boards comes up, and a discussion ensues, inverably the following questions arise.
Why is it...
- That the role of most boards is ill-defined, undisciplined, dependent on staff rather than exercising leadership of staff, and often irrelevant?
- Boards often become consumed by the urgent things that ultimately rob the board of addressing important things and precious time required to ensure the organization achieves great things?
- Why do boards tend to spend hours debating small issues while large ones sail by comparative unexamined?
- Why is the focus of boards on the present, or worse the past, instead of the future?
- Why do boards seem more concerned about the activities of your organization than its outcomes?
- Why do boards approve reports of things that have already happened?
Effective governance is Policy Governance®
