Writing goals down increases achievement by 25%. A manufacturing change-management approach combines personal mission statements with the VIA Character Strengths assessment, ranked 1-24, so workers align their top strengths with the organization's vision.
I've read a lot of studies that mention, you know, you are 25% more likely to achieve your goals if you write them down. Do you implement a lot of that as well, kind of when you're working with change management around like writing down goals and making sure that those are visible, or that's like a practice? Is that something that you work a lot with?
Yeah, we work a lot with transforming pain points into benefits. Okay. Yep. And we work a lot with coming up with with both, you know, you can do these mission and vision exercises and we do them and they're really fun. And, but we also make people come up with their own personal visions. So there's a, there's a, the VIA Character Strengths assessment, which is a positive psychology assessment that sort of gives people rankings from 1 to 24 about what your strengths are. And armed with those strengths, people come up with their personal missions at the organization. And I've had people also come up with their personal missions in their lives, right? One person said once, I want to be a better parent than my parents were. That's it. That's wow, right? And so, we actually have people come up with those personal missions first, share them with the team, and then we come up with what the mission and vision is for what we're trying to accomplish, right? Because then we know who we are and we're bringing all of those strengths into that mission and vision. And that's a lot more compelling.
