Part I: What business are you and your people really in
and why?
Commit To Shared Purpose And Values
“Most people lack a purpose in life and will follow anyone
who gives them a purpose.” - Captain Bob
Captain Bob posed this question, “Given what I have told
ye about the life of a pirate, are ye interested? If yes, ye need
to agree on yer purpose, values, and objectives, ye then elect yer
officers. Next, ye and yer officers develop yer game plan or strategies
to fulfill yer purpose and attain yer goals.
“As for yer purpose or mission, do ye agree that yer purpose
in sailing together is to capture ships, and steal gold and other
valuables? Raise a hand each to show that ye agree…”
All present raised their hands.
