The Sage’s Action Plan

Stretch out the possibilities of Sage-motivated innovation by subjecting your community-building impulses to the more cutthroat attitude of an Athlete. To make your ideas and plans more competitive, try accelerating and focusing the possibilities by asking the following COMPETE questions:

  • Challenge: What can we do to win?
  • Overcome: What can we do to break through our obstacles to success?
  • Maneuver: What can we do to outsmart our competitors?
  • Push: What can we do to move faster?
  • Energize: What can we do to excite our team?
  • Target: What can we do to focus on the results?
  • Engage: What can we do to meet our rivals head-on?
