3 Ways A CEO Can Fix Misalignment In Vision Within His Team Without Appearing Bossy

How to fix a dysfunctional culture and unite your team around your vision? Leadership lessons for entrepreneurs, managers and team leads. - a 3 minute read.

Building culture takes time. It does not happen overnight. Think about what you would need to do if you had to change the dynamics of your family.

How many times have you seen a decision was made in a meeting you attended. You left the meeting, and the next day you found the decision was unmade? These are caused by misalignments in vision within your team.

How do you unite your team fully behind your VISION?

Here are 3 quick and easy ways you can begin to fundamentally change your company's culture for the better.

Tip #1 - Simplify Your Vision.

You can be the greatest manager in the world… but that wont do you a bit of good if you cannot get your team to buy in to your vision.

But there is a bit of science to this.

The clearer and simpler the vision is, the more portable it is, and the easier people can understand it and believe in it. The easier it is for them to spread it. And make it VIRAL.

And there is nothing in this world that is more powerful than a vision that becomes VIRAL !

This is how the Berlin Wall came tumbling down at the end of the last Cold War. Or for that matter, how the Beatles became famous. It all started with a vision !

But first, you need to simplify the vision to make it portable.

So that it can evolve into something viral.

But how do you simplify the vision? How do you turn it into something compelling and portable? What process can you use to do this consistently?

You have to hold the vision in your eyes.

Give it form.

Chisel away at it.

Prune it.

Distill the essence of it.

To make it much purer and stronger than before.

Until it goes on to inspire and persuade millions of people - YOUR TEAM TODAY AND YOUR FUTURE CUSTOMERS TOMORROW.

The more you brainstorm with your team, the more you give shape to your vision. And the more your team see themselves as having contributed towards your vision, the more faith they will have in it. And when you have set up a process to do this regularly, you have taken the first steps towards building a GREAT team.

A team that believes in themselves, and rallies around a compelling vision, with faith in the roadmap they sketch together.

And I can promise you this…. When you finally have a team that believes in your vision, they will figure things out for you on a day-to-day basis. Far more effectively without you needing to push them. They will chase their managers around to solve your problems. Your investors will chase you to give you money to realize your vision which is now also THEIR vision. And you will no longer spend sleepless nights.

All the tools you need to motivate and bond are in our product, The Toot App.

The Toot App is a suite of 5 different brainstorming tools all rolled into one product, that allow you to brainstorm with your team in 5 different ways.

The Toot App will help you fix misalignments in vision.

What's great about the Toot App is that it does not offer only one way of brainstorming like all other SaaS products.

Instead, it offers a suite of 5 different brainstorming tools all rolled into one product, that allow you to brainstorm with your team in 5 different ways.

And this is important because then you can map and visualize your vision and roadmap in 5 ways, looking at them from different angles.

You can hold the vision in your eyes, look at it, prune it, distill the essence of it, make it purer, stronger, give it a form, chisel away at your vision and make it more and more compelling.

And then you can use the same brainstorming tools to reverse engineer the roadmap, one that is practical and that your team is best suited for.

The Toot App offers all the tools you need to brainstorm with your team or alone by yourself OUT OF THE BOX.

Tip #2 - Brainstorm Regularly.

Remember that almost everyone in your team is only able to see a tiny portion of the business. Your main job as a manager is to communicate clearly how everything fits together in the whole scheme of things.

Be super clear in your briefs. You can use a physical whiteboard to brainstorm each other's thoughts. Or you can use a digital whiteboard, such as what The Toot App offers, to help you in remote or hybrid work environments. You can use the Toot App's WorkTable to list out action steps.

Tip #3 - Build A Tribe.

Invest in people despite uncertainty. Good workers never want to feel stuck. When they find that you are helping them grow, you will earn their gratitude and loyalty.

There is no more powerful a feeling in society than the sense of belonging to a Tribe.

Everyone longs for a sense of belonging. And in a tribe, it is the role of the chieftain to find how everyone can become better versions of their selves.

Delegate decision making to the junior members of your tribe. Empower them and fill them with confidence, all the time having conversations with them around the purpose and meaning of their work, and how it is important in the bigger scheme of things.
