It takes courage to reach out, take initiative, think ahead and orchestrate for impact and team success. Especially when you're not everyone's big boss, and the players you need come from different specialities, partners and business units.
This quest equips you to orchestrate the efforts of a virtual matrix multi-enterprise team who's pulling together, supporting each other and co-ordinating efforts to get traction. You'll expand your reach and orchestrate as the lynchpin who's co-ordinating, integrating, directing and facilitating the efforts of a virtual or matrix cross-functional multi-enterprise team. If you're the Sponsor, you'll delegate and empower Orchestrators - to get the traction your enterprise needs. And if you're another contributor, this quest will help you understand what adds value when you show up with your A-game.
In this Quest, you'll
- Map the support you need to mobilize, to get traction, get funded, get adoption, get buyers to say Yes, and transform your industry or accepted standards of care
- Look beyond your silo, chain of command and pay grade, when you figure out who has to be in the right position doing the right things so that your deal or your initiative gets traction
- Recognize when you need more than a "pair of hands" from the players you mobilize - so you get their ingenuity and initiative, so solve problems you haven't yet imagined
- Prevent role confusion and role conflicts, so the partners you mobilize are clear about what's needed when - with the agility and fluidity you expect
- Set rhythms for huddles, scrums, accountability check-ins, updates and for ongoing asynchronous co-ordination
