Helena's Top Tip: There is no silver bullet - it's all about consistent force in one direction

May 06, 2021 • Season 2 • Episode 36

Helena's Top Tip is that there is no silver bullet out there. Rather success is all about consistent force in one direction.

In today's episode, Amy and Becky reflect on the importance of this insight, and how:

Searching for your silver bullet can distract you from doing the crucial work.
It is the accumulative impact of all of your actions which turns the flywheel of your business: the individual action is responsible for your results becomes impossible to determine.
Alignment of your team in its understanding of your vision, values, behaviours, and objectives is crucial for your flywheel to start to move and gather momentum.
The flywheel effect was first popularised by Jim Collins in his iconic book, 'Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap...and Others Don't.'

We invite listeners to reflect on their personal or business' flywheel. What are your drivers of momentum and how do they work together?

Amy adds in the powerful questions from the playbook set out by Patrick Lencioni in 'The Advantage: Why Organizational Health Trumps Everything Else In Business.' What are your answers to:

Why do we exist?
How do we behave?
What do we do?
How will we succeed?

We'd love to hear your insights and reflections. How does the flywheel play out in your business? What else can you do to increase your focus of energy in one consistent direction? Do let us know using the social media links below.
