During the past year, we have been honored to have had a dozen high-performing executive guests on our Latitude podcast. One of the fundamentals they all discussed was a passion and discipline to create organizations that do common things uncommonly well.

Please join us for episode #29 as we 'connect the dots' from these 12 leaders' insights regarding mission, vision, values, strategy, and culture.

Whiteboard Notes:

Reflection Questions:

1. Research shows most US organizations have a mission, vision, core values, and strategy. However, employee understanding drops off significantly in actually knowing and actively living them. How would your organization stack up in knowing and living these critical foundational goals/objectives? How do you know?
2. Ultimately your workplace culture is shaped by the stories both told and untold. What stories are your employees sharing both inside and out? Do they accurately describe the way you do things and why they are important?
3. Do you have a clear plan in your organization regarding when to:
   • Buy talent (hire)
   • Build talent (train and develop)
   • Borrow talent (contract, temps, consultants)
   • Redeploy existing talent (move internally)
