You built this.

Decisions slow without you.
Alignment breaks.
Results vary.
Not people.
Not execution.
Structure.

If it doesn’t change, nothing will.

@SenJohnHoeven Watch the videos, Senator. Believe your eyes.

@Delta DL 2129 on 1/22 MSP to BIS left over ten passengers behind after closing the gate and then sat at the gate for at least ten minutes.

Is that the Delta Airlines I know and love?

In this world of incivility, kindness goes further than ever.

[Chris Young @therainmaker]

Just wanted to thank @westjet for screwing up my @Delta flights yesterday and today.

Never again.

How on earth @Delta sees fit to have @westjet carry their passengers is way beyond my capacity to understand.

@jimcramer Time to short?

[Chris Young @therainmaker]

@Dontshortspy It just did.

[Chris Young @therainmaker]

@Delta Thank you for the sprint exercise from MSP C23 to F11 this evening. It’s the little things that matter in CX.

You Cannot Scale What You Tolerate - Culture is defined by what leaders allow. Tolerance of mediocrity institutionalizes dysfunction. You cannot scale what you refuse to enforce.

Tell the truth. Hear the truth. Act on the truth.
Even when it hurts. Especially when it hurts.

Brutal facts. Radical candor. Ideological conflict.
Truth is the foundation of scalable leadership.

Leaders bring the weather.
You want performance?
Show up clear. Show up composed.
Your presence sets the climate.
No one follows chaos.

Profit does not equal brilliance.

Your top-line engine might be strong enough to drag dysfunction across the finish line—for now.

Discipline is what lasts.

Top reps are never fully yours. They are loyal to results, not titles.
One foot in your company. One eye on the market. That is how they stay sharp.

If you are too busy to build a culture of clarity and ownership, prepare to manage friction and drama.

Most companies track 20 KPIs and move none.
The best companies align around one.

It is called a Critical Number.
And it is how execution cultures scale.

Some years you win.
Some years you build character.
If this was a grind year, do not waste it—leverage it. Here is how: [https://t.co/eLJwtscyKW] #Leadership #ScalingUp #FounderMode #ScalingUpMindset

[Chris Young @therainmaker]

Team building is not an offsite.
It is an operating system.

Train it quarterly.
Reset it annually.
Onboard it daily.

If you do not reset culture—it resets you.
