Execution is all about the little things (basics)
Management stifles innovation because it is focused on
· The simple“basics” are the game changers when competing at elite levels
· NBA coachKen Eastman (assistant to Doc Rivers) found that poor execution of the “little things” cost them 32 points per game
· You perform at the level of intensity and excellence at which you train, so focus 100%effort and excellence on “every” …
- Every second of every minute of every game/workday
- Everybody,in every role, performing at maximum potential
- Every task,no matter how mundane
·Lapses of a few “unimportant tasks” done poorly ora few minutes of “poor effect” build up over time and become the deciding factor in leading or falling behind

What 1% willYou improve today?
· Plateaus are taboo, so each day target a new “next level” …
oNext level focus (being fully present)
oNext level preparation
oNext level self-discipline
· Top performers take two or three “next steps” each and every week, month, quarter, and season to get to that “next level”
· Move on rapidly from both good and bad events. Success is rented not owned and rent isdue every day, thus we have to move on to:
oThe next challenge
oThe next area to improve
oThe next project
oThe next «win»
G-rowth Mindset
Top performers ALWAYS want to grow …
· Everyone who aspires to greatness has to be willing to be teachable and coachable
· Commitdaily to …
oListen more (evento the things that are “hard” to hear)
oWork harder (give even 1 % more)
oLearn more (even outside your core area)
oConnect more (how can you help and add more value to those around you?)
· Past results do not guarantee tomorrow’s success:
oSuccess is not about what you have accomplished, it’s what you should have accomplished with the talent that you possess
oWhat matters most is not what you know, it’s what you need to know to get to where you want to go
