Common Drivers Include
Intention
Idea • A really good one
Purpose
Personal
Character
Boundaries
Obsession
Goal!
Usually Missing…
Leads to
Frustration
• Writing it down changes it
from an idea to a purpose
• Do you have your core
values defined? What type
of person do I want to be?
• Your personal character
defines your personal
boundaries – what you’re
willing to do or not do
• All of your actions are
focused on your purpose
and goal
A little bit about behavior and success
Wait. What?
No. WHY?
Vision
• Where You Want to Be –
You’ve paid consultants a
lot for a fancy “Vision
Statement”
Mission
• You’ve defined “How
You’re Going To Get
There”
Guiding Principles • Guides Decisions and
Actions
Controls
(Boundaries)
• Fail-safe
• Measurements
• Standards
Execution
• All of your actions are
intentionally focused on
your purpose and goal

Governing the Commons: The Evolution of Institutions for Collective Action
“Organizing is a process; an organization is the result of that process”
“Confusing a model – such as that of a perfectly competitive market – with the theory of which it is one
representation can limit applicability still further.”
“A resource arrangement that works in practice can work in theory.”
