YOUR RESULT

High-Performing

Your team is crushing it—delivering incredible results and setting a standard others aspire to. But with success comes new pressures, and they’re starting to add up. External bottlenecks—like dependencies on slow moving teams and resistant stakeholders—are dragging progress down. On top of it all, distractions are creeping in. New opportunities, shiny ideas, and growing expectations are pulling focus and stretching your team thin. You’re spending more time fighting external battles—pushing for change, removing barriers, and advocating for your team—just to keep things running. This stage isn’t about fixing chaos; it’s about protecting what you’ve built.

Everyday looks like:

Your team’s success has raised the bar. Expectations are higher than ever, and the pressure to overdeliver is becoming a constant strain.
Your team is consistently delivering, but the cracks are starting to show. The pressure to sustain exceptional results means small inefficiencies and external barriers feel bigger than ever.
External bottlenecks are more noticeable. Dependencies on slower-moving teams, systems outside your control, or stakeholders holding onto outdated ways of working are dragging down progress and frustrating your team.
Distractions are creeping in. With everything running smoothly, new opportunities and shiny ideas threaten to derail focus and stretch your team’s capacity.
The need for influence is growing. To maintain momentum, you’re spending more time advocating for your team, removing organizational barriers, and pushing for systemic change.
Maintaining motivation feels more complex. Your team is high-performing, but sustaining their energy and focus over time requires new ways of keeping them engaged.

Your 2-3 Key Focus Areas

Influence Beyond Your Team

Right now, external barriers—slow-moving systems, resistant stakeholders, and outdated processes—are creating unnecessary friction that’s dragging your team down. What used to be manageable inefficiencies have become major roadblocks, frustrating progress and draining momentum.

Your focus should be on pinpointing the bottlenecks holding your team back and addressing them, one at a time, to build real momentum and avoid burnout.

Bring your team together and ask: What’s one thing outside our control—or within our broader org culture—that’s slowing us down?

Vote on the biggest barrier and commit to tackling it. By focusing on one change at a time, you’ll see progress faster and keep the team motivated to take on the next challenge.

Protect Focus

At this stage, distractions aren’t just tempting—they’re everywhere. Success has made your team the go-to for new opportunities, but chasing every request or idea dilutes their impact and stretches their capacity. Scaling isn’t about doing more—it’s about focusing on the opportunities that elevate your team’s purpose and amplify their results.

Your focus should be on scaling strategically, aligning every yes with your team’s mission and filtering out work that doesn’t move the needle.

Align with your team and ask: How does this opportunity advance our mission? Will this expand our impact or simply add to our workload?

Communicate these priorities clearly to stakeholders and empower your team to say no to work that doesn’t strategically scale their impact. By focusing on the right opportunities, your team can grow without losing sight of what truly matters.

Create an Innovation Community

The weight of external barriers and resistance to change can feel isolating for your team. The constant grind of pushing for progress risks draining their energy and motivation.

Your focus should be on fostering a culture of innovation by building a community where ideas flow freely, challenges are tackled creatively, and progress feels collaborative. This can reinvigorate your team, connect them with like-minded peers, and keep the momentum alive.

Host hackathons, innovation competitions, or knowledge-sharing sessions where your team and others tackle challenges together. Invite external organizations or industry experts to bring in fresh perspectives and spark creativity.

Creating this community not only energizes your team but also strengthens their commitment to driving change while making the process feel collaborative and exciting rather than isolating.

Your Team is Only as Good as the System it Operates in

Even the most talented team will struggle if they’re stuck in a clunky, disorganized system. Without clear priorities, smooth workflows, and a structure that empowers them, your team’s potential—and yours as a leader—will always be capped. The grind you’re feeling isn’t because your team isn’t capable—it’s because the system they’re working in is holding them back.
