The Thinking Behind The Tweet
Some people, perhaps many people, are annoyed by the pressure of setting goals. Many people, if not most people, love to learn about and make predictions. There is little to be gained by fighting against the flow. Rather than fighting against the flow, [at least to some degree] Leaders and managers can seek middle ground and help their people make predictions.
People love to make predictions...and People will embrace the predictions they make.
Examples of predictions people love to make and learn about:
- bets on sports games
- weather predictions, especially "Ground Hog Day"
- stock market investments
- Nostradamus predictions
Why not add business predictions to the list!

The Thinking Behind The Tweet
Values, Purpose, Vision, Rules, & Goals are not discreet, stand-alone concepts. They are intertwined. For most People, they are iterative-too...gaining more clarity with time. When you boil business down, its essence is People, Process, & Situations. People come first. People bring with them 'Character'...which, for each person, is a summing up of his/her Values, Purpose, Vision, Rules, & Goals.
