Clarity is the ability to act.
If you tell me to “do better” or “we are going to work together to hit our goal this month” – I can’t act on that.
But if you tell me what my part is and specifically what you want me to do, what actions I need to take or do differently and how (each week/day/hour), who is counting on me and why it matters, and how I can win – that I CAN do.
Are you a leader who creates clarity?
I’ve learned that writing down directives, requests, messages etc. provides the sharpest clarity, both for the writer and the receiver of the note.
