Is The Difference

A Ferrari F1 Pit stop is less than 2 seconds! Each person has a specific role and must be completely aligned with everyone else on the team. Each crew member’s body position and movement must be exact, and timed perfectly, because any mistakes could cost the race or a life.

High Performing Organizations work the same way. Managers, associates, systems, and work processes all must be aligned for continuous improvement and long-term survival.

High Performance Organizations Enable:

1. You to understand why you are perfectly designed to get the results you get today.

2. Realign your organizational elements so that you get and sustain high performance in the future.

Dave's new book on BYU football history, Leadership of LaVell Edwards

LaVell's Leadership Playbook

The strategy that changed NCAA football

This is a historical narrative of Utah farm boy LaVell Edwards who transformed
Brigham Young University’s 50 year losing football record into a national power. In his 29
years at the helm, he posted a record of 257 wins, 101 losses and three ties. Along the
way he marked his path with:
* 20 conference championships
* 22 bowl game appearances
* The 1984 NCAA national championship with a record of 13-0.
* A victory over the Miami Hurricanes when they were Number One.
* The 1997 Cotton Bowl trophy by defeating a highly ranked Kansas State team.

“Dave Hanna’s book, LaVell’s Leadership Playbook, is a masterpiece in telling the
personal stories of many of us who were privileged to play for Coach Edwards. For me,
the book brilliantly represents what our beloved coach wanted every BYU player, past
and present, to become.”
– Brad Oates (All-WAC Offensive Tackle 1974-75)

“An awesome book about LaVell Edwards’ leadership and some of his memorable games as head coach! This book goes beyond facts and statistics; it also tells how LaVell’s relationship built strong bonds of loyalty with his players and assistant coaches. The game summaries are incredible and bring back wonderful memories! The Playbook provides valuable insights on how he was able to lead the breakthroughs to greater success.” – Gary Sheide (NCAA No. 2 Quarterback 1973-74)

Aligning People to Strategy

The Issue: Leadership

Business leaders must be deeply committed to reach the peak of high performance. They learn from the market, competition, and all associates. They earn and maintain the trust of all associates. They adapt accordingly as changes in the market and unexpected situations come to them.

How we can help !

Among other things here are two important steps that successful leaders have taken:

A diagnosis of the current state of your whole system. This helps you be clear about your journey’s starting point.
Learning about the key factors and organizational principles that differentiate HPOs from their peers. This helps expand your vision of what is possible for you to achieve.

Aligning Change Management & Organization Design

The Issue:

Change Management and Organization Design

Too often, change management and organization design are treated as
separate items on the “To Do” list. Defining the desired change is critical,
but the new behaviors and practices must be institutionalized if the desired change is to truly become a new way of operating.

How we can help!

These two processes must be approached together if the changes you want are to be anything more than a short, temporary
adjustment.

This is precisely the contribution of organization design – to solidify the new way of working together through new processes, structures, and systems.

Aligning Culture and Strategy

The Issue:

Culture vs. Strategy

Strategy is essentially a statement of good intentions. Culture is a description of “the way we really do things.” Seldom do people in the organization fully practice (in culture) what they preach (with strategy).
