Whether it's a leadership transition, a large-scale organizational change, or a more limited performance initiative, building confidence is a critical first step toward gaining momentum.

New leaders need to show measurable results within their first 90 days, in order to earn the confidence and support of their boards and company stakeholders. This same timeframe applies to any new initiative - you've got to show early results early if you want to build momentum.

The window of opportunity is brief.

A prolonged start-up period reduces an organization's confidence in the leader and in its own ability to perform.

When you take charge of new opportunities immediately, and show early results quickly, you increase your organization's motivation and confidence, fueling even higher levels of performance.

Overriding target - Every leader knows the value of creating a long-term objective and action plan. However, most leaders find it difficult to gain genuine commitment to their strategy at all levels of the organization.

Our experience shows that leaders who establish this kind of commitment prior to implementing change initiatives are far more successful in executing their plans. When everyone's eye is on the same target, strategies and tactics are more easily adjusted, and progress toward goals becomes unstoppable.

Milestones that build momentum - Identifying the right milestones is an essential part of a successful action plan. Achieving these milestones gives your organization and leadership team something to celebrate. These early wins build your credibility and increase your organization's confidence in its own ability to achieve the next objective.

Evolution - Leaders often need to transform their organization's culture and performance capability to achieve long-term objectives. As you develop your plan to achieve early wins, make certain that the methods and metrics you use are consistent with the culture you want to create.
