THE SEQUENCE MATTERS

Performance does not start with more information.
It starts with the need for safety. The quest to belong. And the desire to feel valued.

That enables emotional commitment.
Only then can the thinking brain do its best work: decide, solve, and create.

SAFETY FIRST

The primary function of the brain is to keep the organism alive. So safety is our first priority.​

 

Any interaction with other people, whether it's at a family gathering or a team meeting, begins
with the brain scanning for danger. We look for threats, both real and imagined. 

 

That means we need to know we are safe socially as well. So connecting with others is critical.

BUILD EMOTIONAL COMMITMENT

Once we feel safe—psychologically and socially—we can connect emotionally to the work and the people around us. That is where commitment begins.

 

People do not commit simply because a strategy makes sense. They commit when it matters to them and to the people around them.

LEVERAGE THE THINKING BRAIN

When people feel safe and care about the work, they can leverage the Executive Functions of the brain.

 

That means we can think clearly, challenge assumptions and make tough decisions. It also enables us
to align around priorities, and act.

 

Most organizations start here.

 

We build up to it - because the sequence accelerates results.
