124 - Make Prioritization Visible: A Leadership Diagnostic

Listen Later
In this episode host Marcey Rader turns a hard truth into a leadership tool: when priorities aren’t visible, teams optimize everything and impact thins. Using the Altitude method (see Episode 118) and your Top Three, Marcey shows how to reduce decision load, cut operational drag, and protect capacity with an 85% planning bar and clear guardrails.

 

Why it matters
  • Invisible priorities create rework, slow decisions, and burnout.
  • Visible Top Three at every altitude lowers decision load and stress.
  • An 85% capacity bar funds resilience for real life and real opportunities.

    •  

    What you’ll learn
    • How to publish Top Three at Strategic/Operational/Ground altitudes
    • How to spot “optimization theater” and name the real costs
    • Four guardrails: 85% capacity, kill-first meetings, one decision owner, public scoreboard
    • Five tactical moves you can implement this week
