Ep. 008: Setting Goals and Expectations

A GOAL IS JUST A DAYDREAM WITHOUT A TARGET Dr. Jake Tayler Jacobs made over thirty million dollars before he turned thirty, with the Rolls Royce and private planes to show for it, and still had to ask his team one question: to what end? This episode is about finding that higher reason and turning it into goals people can actually hit, starting with SIPS's own big goal to become the global standard for leadership in sterile processing. IN THIS EPISODE • Why the goal for a sterile processing team is a flawless surgery upstairs, not just turnaround time • Getting "in your bag": the Big Hairy Audacious Goal, and why you stop moving it once it is set • Turning the bag into OKRs: two to three objectives a quarter, three to five key results each • Building a culture contract of five to seven commitments that holds "even when it's uncomfortable" YOUR CHALLENGE What is one specific action you can take this week to clarify, reinforce, or elevate the goals and expectations you set for your team? ━━━━━━━━━━━━ Bred To Lead is powered by SIPS Healthcare Solutions.
