Show Notes
If your strategy message passed through your organisation like a game of Chinese whispers… would the last person hear the same thing you meant?
CEOs hold enormous complexity in their heads, but organisations only act on what they clearly understand.
In this episode you’ll learn:
- Why clarity degrades as messages travel through layers of leadership
- The “Chinese whispers test” every CEO should apply to company communication
- The three levels of clarity leaders must translate: organisation, team, and individual
Listen now to learn how CEOs can ensure strategy survives the journey from the C-suite to the front line.
New episodes Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday.
