The need for a Vision is something we all agree with, but we rarely discuss how to get to the Vision. Even though we may have developed an excellent strategic plan with well defined business drivers, we may still be having difficulty deploying these factors to all levels of the organization. They just don’t understand the role that each of them has in carrying out the Vision. Just what is expected of a true Leader in this environment? What kind of involvement and participation is required of them? Can they just delegate all this? What are the characteristics of Excellent Leadership that will help drive the organization at all levels to understand and perform their roles? How can you determine if these values, vision and key drivers have in fact been instituted or engrained in the very fabric of your culture? Then how do you evaluate the effectiveness of the Leadership in its attempt to implement Performance Excellence.
