Quick Hits are 10-minute conversations designed to exercise your brain by letting you listen in on an unscripted conversation to hear other people‘s thoughts on a variety of subjects. In February of 2021 I and the members of my mastermind group thought other people might enjoy listening in on some of the lively conversations we were having. But we realized that no one was going spend 90-minutes listening to us going on about anything and sometimes nothing. Instead, we decided to pick one topic and have a short conversation to share. I took the reigns because facilitating those types of conversations sounded like fun. Over the course of a few months it grew from just members of our mastermind group to four (sometimes three if schedules go sideways) people from various parts of the world and from ”short” to exactly 10-minutes. Thus was born ”Quick Hits” hosted by me, Dr Robyn. I hope to get caught up with posting them here on PodBean at some point. As of this writing, I have over 100 ”episodes.” If you‘d like to see the videos of these conversations, they are available on my YouTube channel: https://bit.ly/DrRobynQuickHits If you have a topic you‘d like to hear discussed, I encouraged you to use the contact page of my website: https://drrobynodegaard.com/ to let me know.

This panel has decades of combined experience running a host of different types of teams.
Kevin Wash started us off. His expertise is in sales for international property development. From his point of view, you can share the goal numbers and where the company is along the path to achieving that goal. It is a very clear metric and not overwhelming at all.
Brandon Mahoney went next. He is a master of sales as well but in the startup arena. He agrees with Kevin that the first thing you need is very clear company goals (side note – I would have assumed that was a given but it seems that is not always the case).
Dr Bob Choat has experience in too many industries to list here. He talked about using storytelling to help people be engaged in the company mission and goals. He also shared about the new app project he is working on and how the three individuals involved have had to shift from personal mission to joint mission.
When I worked in corporate, I never knew how what I did mattered to the company goals. I asked this panel if they thought that was every okay. They all shook their heads no. I asked them to explain what they thought that.
I then followed up by asking how much a front-line employee really needs to know. Kevin made an interesting point saying every employee needs to know the impact if they do a bad job.
Do you agree that everyone in an organization needs to know how they fit into the larger picture? Or does it not matter for people who are just coming in and doing their job? If it does matter, how much do they really need to know?
