It’s your job as a leader to create a compelling vision that infuses meaning and purpose into the work you do. Plant that flag in the ground, and give your people a noble cause to rally around.

Spoiler alert: the world changing. Are you going to take advantage of it, be in denial about it, or allow the competition to eat your lunch? The choice is yours.

Be audacious with your goals and plans. That big vision will help you draw out more innovation and combat complacency.

When it comes to setting team goals, don’t sandbag. Push your thinking. If you can easily outline the path to reaching your goal, it’s probably not ambitious enough.

Want to move the needle for your company? Get radically focused on your biggest priorities and coach others to do the same.

Yes, you’ve got to do your job well. But to truly set yourself apart, look for opportunities to deliver beyond your job description.
