Plug the Leaks
“Some leaders believe that if they fill people’s vision buckets all the way to the top one time, those buckets will stay full forever. But the truth is, people’s buckets have holes of varying sizes in their bottoms. As a result, vision leaks out.”(Bill Hybels, Axioms)
Move Beyond Compliance Commitment Genuine compliance Grudging compliance Non-compliance Apathy
(Peter Senge, The Fifth Discipline)

They displayed a remarkable discipline to unplug all sorts of extraneous junk.(Jim Collins, Good to Great)
Within Your Leadership Team …

list?
