Senior leaders don't fail from lack of effort—they fail from building weak systems and tracking the wrong results. This episode breaks down the essential domain of "leading things" and reveals why your ability to harness systems and processes determines whether you (and your organization) will thrive or just survive.

Part of the essential 3-domain leadership framework: Leading Yourself, Leading Teams, and Leading Things.

Key Takeaways:

  • Get ruthlessly clear on what winning looks like — Not generic KPIs, but precise, business-critical outcomes that everyone can understand and rally behind
  • Design systems so simple they actually get used — The strongest systems succeed through radical simplicity, not complexity. Make performance visual, public, and trackable
  • Practice real accountability starting with yourself — Before pointing fingers when things go wrong, ask "How did I set my team up for success?" True accountability begins with leadership ownership
  • Focus on people, process, and product — When you nail these three fundamentals, the profits take care of themselves
