The 4 Disciplines of Execution
Discipline 1: Focus on the Wildly Important
Students write a WIG (Wildly Important Goal) to go from where they are to where they want to be in a certain timeframe.
Discipline 2: Act on Lead Measures
Students identify the behaviors that they need to do every day to help them reach their goal. This is the action step in our goal setting culture.
Discipline 3: Keep a Compelling Scoreboard
Students track two pieces of vital information in their leadership notebook. First, students track progress towards their goal on a chart that often looks like a bar graph. Second, and perhaps more importantly, students track on a calendar their daily completion of Lead Measures.
Discipline 4: Create a Cadence of Accountability
Students often share their leadership notebook with others, teachers, admin, other students...anyone. Sharing is a way to keep ourselves accountable. If I share my Lead Measure calendar with you and there are no indications that I've done any daily lead measures, then I am more inclined to recommit myself to doing the things daily I need to do to reach my goals.
