How to Get Your Team Excited About the Future
|
Hi Reader,
💡 Today’s Niblit: In Vivid Vision, Cameron Herold reveals that the internal rollout process is crucial for vision success. After helping build three companies to over $100 million, he discovered that how you share your vision internally determines whether it inspires action or collects dust.
🔑 Key Insight: The internal rollout of your Vivid Vision acts like a magnet. It attracts the right people and repels those who don’t belong. When done correctly, about 15% of your team may choose to leave, and that’s actually a sign of success.
Think about assembling a sports team. If you’re building a championship basketball team and announce you’re going to win the title, some players will get fired up and commit fully, while others might decide they don’t want that level of intensity. The players who stay are the ones you want, plus they’re aligned with your vision and ready to do what it takes.
Why does this matter? Having the wrong people on your team is like trying to row a boat with some people rowing forward and others rowing backward. The internal rollout helps you identify who’s truly committed to the journey ahead.
🦉 Nibble of Wisdom: A bold vision will inspire some and intimidate others. That’s exactly what you want.
🛠️ Practical Tip: Read your Vivid Vision aloud with your entire team present. Watch their reactions and have each person circle the parts that excite them most.
🚀 Quick Action: Schedule an all-hands meeting for next week dedicated solely to sharing and discussing your company’s future vision. Make it a celebration of possibility, not a presentation.
🔍 Further Exploration:
- Notice which team members light up when discussing the company’s future versus those who seem disengaged.
- Consider how your current onboarding process could incorporate the Vivid Vision to attract aligned candidates.
- Explore the psychological principle of commitment and consistency and how public alignment with a vision increases dedication.
🎬 Wrapup: Remember, your internal rollout isn’t just about sharing information — it’s about creating a team of believers who are excited to build the future together. The right people will be energized, and that energy becomes contagious.
