Episode 185: Authority Flows Where Accountability Lives


Listen Later

Most firm owners try to scale by tracking more numbers yet still feel stuck in the weeds. The result? KPI overload, inconsistent results, and a business that still depends too heavily on the owner.

In this episode of The Wize Way Podcast, we unpack how SOPs are the missing link between KPIs and real performance. Not as paperwork, but as the operational muscle that turns targets into daily behaviour. Drawing from a live Wize coaching session, this conversation explores:

✅ Why KPIs fail when systems don’t support them
 ✅ How SOP ownership drives accountability for results
 ✅ The link between micro-training and consistent KPI outcomes
 ✅ How to get buy-in so teams act on the numbers, not just report them

If your KPIs look good on paper but don’t change how work gets done, this is a must-listen.
