  • 1 Do our teams clearly understand which priorities matter most or are they chasing too many goals at once?
  • 2 When results fall short, do we examine the system — or blame the people?

  • 4 Do our performance metrics reward the outcomes that truly matter?
  • 5 Are teams collaborating to win together — or optimizing for their own targets?
  • 6 How much time do employees spend doing work that doesn’t actually move the strategy forward?
