Jason continues the total participation series with the fourth installment: showing the team what winning looks like, daily. He pulls in the principles from Own the Gap on closing the distance between a company's vision and the work happening in the field, the phrase he and Weston Woolsey repeated on projects ("see what winning looks like"), and Niklas Modig's Jidoka principle of making the team's standing visible so problems can surface. He shares the self-performed concrete crew story where breaking down production targets by code, by crew, and by day transformed random task work into a team solving problems together to hit a number.
What you'll learn in this episode:
-
The three engagement requirements: connection, relevance, and measurement
-
Why visual systems without targets don't actually motivate anyone
-
The principle from Own the Gap: close the distance between the company vision and the daily work
-
The self-performed concrete story: visual production targets by crew and code daily
-
The civil example: linear footage by station by ten minute increments to expose what's holding the crew back
-
The Jidoka principle from Niklas Modig: see the target, see the gap, and the team will surface the problems
If you don't define winning, your team can't win. And if your visual systems don't include the target, they're just decoration.
