- What you learned
- I learned about the four principles of being an outcome-driven leader. Those principles include: change is the job (constantly making changes and improve the strategies is essential), without measurement, there is no meaning (which just means to truly change, you must have an objective way to measure progress), outcomes over outputs (instead of focusing on the outputs or activity, you need to continually communicate the destination of the enterprise by defining the clear outcomes), and freedom with responsibility (the need for teams to have the freedom to organize their contributions around outcomes). From this understanding of the important principles to becoming an outcome-driven leader, there come practices that should be used, such as creating systems of execution, inviting participation and then negotiating, and leading with a life cycle mindset.
