from orangutan to rocket scientist: how to lead and engage your team through effective process

The purpose of this book is to share a number of stories with questions for you to reflect on around your organization’s Purpose, Product, Performance, People, and Process (the P5 Rocket). You will also gain access to several simple, but powerful templates that have helped numerous business leaders to align and focus teams to drive success. There are 3 key points that you, the reader, will want to keep in mind as you read the pages of this book.

1. ＂Clearly aligned processes enable your team to optimize performance and ultimately fulfill your organization’s purpose＂

2. ＂Process without People is Waste and People without Process are Frustrated＂

3. ＂In order to grow, your team must possess the Tools, Skills, and Mindset!＂ Most of my clients have experienced one of these conditions:

- Rapid growth has outpaced your processes

- Misaligned departments or teams has led to frustrated and disengaged employees If you have a team that is frustrated and disengaged (and many are today), then this book will provide you with ways to increase the engagement and energy of your team to propel your P5 Rocket in the right direction with incredible energy!
