C-suite Operating System Playbook

Written By Mackenzie Lee

Chiefs of Staff, get out your power drills and put on your hard hats. To be successful, you need to be the systems engineer for your C-suite.

To be successful in your job, you must create an operating system (OS) for leadership (and yourself!) You must build the system of people, process and technology that make your senior leadership team the best they can be.

Your Leadership OS will turn your executive team into fast and fearless leaders who collaborate effectively and work efficiently towards your goals.

So dust off your toolbox and put on your carpenter pants. It’s time to design leadership systems for the following:

  • Calendar Optimization

  • Meeting Setting

  • Decision Making

  • Bench Strength Review

  • Workload Rebalancing

  • Delegation Protocol

  • Blocker Removal

  • Energy Maximization

  • Wellbeing Improvement

  • KPI Monitoring

If you spec out the 10 items above, you’ll be off to a good start. Next up: implementation.
