Get What You Really Want. NOW.

Recommended Resource: Video of The Rockefeller Habits In Action

If you are not familiar with The Rockefeller Habits, one of the key practices is for the core executive team to meet every day for 7-12 minutes; then the executives meet with each of their teams for 7-12 minutes, and those people then meet with their team for 7-12 minutes so the whole company gets aligned and focused each morning. These meetings can either cascade down (like I just explained) or cascade up.  

For those of you who already do daily huddles/meetings (as recommended in The Rockefeller Habits methodology), you’ll enjoy this brief video of a Vancouver company that mastered the daily meeting format. Watch how incredibly powerful this technique is in getting the whole business aligned as a highly productive, laser focused team. You will be amazed that this meeting lasts only 7 minutes. If you haven’t introduced these meetings into your business, this video will show you why this is a highly recommended strategy for companies that are or want to be growing fast. (By the way, how would you feel if your competitors started doing these meetings on a daily basis?) 

If you want to know more about these meetings, please ask me or read about it in Verne Harnish’s book, The Rockefeller Habits.
