If You Can't See It, You Can't Scale It

ops May 13, 2025
 

If your team doesn’t know what winning looks like, they’ll aim for staying busy. In this episode of 10-Minute Masterclass, Trey Sheneman unpacks how to build a simple but powerful scorecard that keeps your team focused, aligned, and accountable. Learn the five components of a growth-driven scorecard and the weekly rhythm to keep your business executing, not just planning.

Key Takeaways

- Vision is exciting, but execution pays the bills—scorecards drive execution.

- The moment your team starts measuring, growth becomes predictable.

- 5 components of a powerful scorecard:

  • Lagging Metrics – What already happened (revenue, churn, customer count).
  • Leading Metrics – What’s coming up (pipeline, demos, calendar).
  • Ownership – One person per metric—no shared responsibility.
  • Traffic Lights – Color-coded status (green = on track, yellow = needs attention, red = off track).
  • Visibility – Ask: what’s on track, what’s off, and what’s the plan? Avoid these 3 mistakes: too many metrics, no context, and no action plan.
