Manage to Lead Do & Review (PowerPoint PPTX)

It Pays to Pay Attention! The number one reason things go off the rails is due to a lack of management attention.

When top leaders are informed, thinking critically, and engaged enough to provide guidance and direction, things tend to go pretty well. That is, things get done better, sooner, and more smoothly when leaders pay attention. The slides in this desk provide a framework and templates to facilitate an efficient way for top leaders to get and stay up-to-speed, see and understand what is going on, think critically, develop a point-of-view, and provide advice and guidance for leaders and teams managing any organization, unit, function, or initiative.

Nearly all of the things that cause activities and initiatives to go off track (e.g., see Kotter's eight reasons initiatives fail) could be averted if someone in a position of authority had been involved enough to give guidance along the way. It is hard, though, for leaders to stay sufficiently engaged even in the most important activities and initiatives because it takes time and focused attention that is easily diverted to other urgent matters.

The framework and templates in this deck make doable the actions driven by this simple truth:
