What's actually breaking?

Do front-line employees actively use your organization's mission statement as a filter for their everyday decisions, rather than it just being a poster on the wall?

Is the organization's time-bound vision statement explicitly translated into actionable goals for individual teams to guide their daily priorities?

Does your organization consistently rely on objective evidence rather than authority to make decisions, while simultaneously prioritizing trust to eliminate the fear of making mistakes?

Do leaders act primarily as "stewards" and coaches whose main focus is empowering teams and removing obstacles, rather than telling people what to do?

When a decision needs to be made, is the default leadership behavior to delegate it to the team or individual who truly owns the outcome and consequences?

Is your hiring process designed to prioritize a candidate's love of learning (IQ) and ability to collaborate (EQ) over specific hard technical skills?

Are your teams structured around delivering end-to-end value to specific customer(s) rather than being grouped by traditional departments or specialties?

Are your teams a group of cross-functional collaborators with no single leader?

Have unstructured, energy-draining meetings been replaced by purposeful, ritualized "ceremonies" (with clear purposes, preparation, participants, patterns, and products)?

Does everyone love coming to work each day?
