MotorsportReg.com, North America\u2019s largest motorsport membership and event management system.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/h2>\nHagerty and The Rockefeller Habits<\/h2>\n
To keep his rapidly expanding business aligned, Hagerty implemented the \u201cRockefeller Habits,\u201d a management system popularized by Verne Harnish. One of the key components of the Rockefeller Habits is the One-Page Strategic Plan.<\/p>\n
Here is how Verne describes the One-Page Strategic Plan (OPSP), \u201cThe bigger your company gets, and the faster it\u2019s growing, the harder it is to get everyone on the same page. The problem, of course, is that there isn\u2019t a single page around which to align.\u201d<\/p>\n
The One-Page Strategic Planning process helps Hagerty confront the critical issues, debate potential strategies, evaluate alternatives, set priorities, and allocate resources. This starts with strong leadership, and Hagerty has very clearly defined goals and priorities.<\/p>\n
Some of the other components of the Rockefeller Habits include quarterly meetings, clear key performance indicators, and daily huddles.<\/p>\n
\u201cRockefeller Habits take all the best business practices and rolls them into clear steps,\u201d explained Hagerty. \u201cThe Rockefeller Habits, like life, require daily doses of energy to work. If a company is not prepared to 100 percent commit to executing the habits, the effectiveness can slip away.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/h2>\nHagerty and Align<\/h2>\n
Hagerty uses software from Align\u00a0to implement the Rockefeller Habits at scale. They first implemented the Align software in the third quarter of 2017, starting with the executive team.\u00a0Over time, they have cascaded the tool throughout the organization and currently have over 350 employees using Align. Hagerty expects to double that number in 2019.<\/p>\n
First, Hagerty uses Align to document and communicate the One-Page Strategic Plan, which outlines their five corporate priorities. This is updated quarterly and is visible to all employees.<\/p>\n
In addition, Hagerty employees are using Align to track progress on over 600 individual priorities. In some cases, these are directly aligned with one of the top five corporate priorities. In other cases, these priorities are aligned \u201corganizationally\u201d with individual priorities rolling up to their manager\u2019s priorities.<\/p>\n
To ensure that all managers stay connected, Hagerty conducts a monthly business update meeting for all Hagerty managers. The information for this meeting comes directly from Align. They even create a video called \u201cOn the Same Page\u201d to help communicate their priorities.<\/p>\n
Hagerty also uses Align\u2019s Daily Huddles feature. Currently, Hagerty has 77 Daily Huddles established in Align. In the huddle meeting, each employee must share his or her Number One Priority for the day. These are documented in Align, and during the following day\u2019s huddle, employees must report whether they accomplished it.<\/p>\n
\u201cPeople feel so much more connected now,\u201d explained Emily Wilbert, Hagerty\u2019s Senior Manager of Strategy Operations. \u201cThere is no way we could have scaled the Rockefeller Habits without the Align system.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/h2>\nBenefits of Align<\/h2>\n
Using Align to implement the Rockefeller Habits has produced tremendous benefits for Hagerty.<\/p>\n
First, Align allows Hagerty to implement the Rockefeller Habits at scale. It provides a single, cloud-based system that stores all of the plans, goals, priorities, Key Performance Indicators, Daily Huddle reports, and more. Since it is cloud-based, employees from all of Hagerty\u2019s locations can easily use the system. Many employees use the Align app on their phone.<\/p>\n
Second, Align creates a culture of transparency and accountability. Since everyone can see the One-Page Strategic Plan, they can align their goals with the corporate priorities. In addition, since everyone can see everyone else\u2019s priorities, it improves trust, collaboration, and teamwork. \u201cEveryone from the top executive to the entry level employee knows the purpose of the company and how they\u2019re responsible for helping achieve it,\u201d explained McKeel Hagerty. \u201cAlign makes that possible.\u201d<\/p>\n
Third, Align improves execution. Before implementing the system, Hagerty could only hope<\/i> that everyone\u2019s goals are aligned. Now, they can track\u2014and measure\u2014goal alignment<\/a>. They can also measure the status of those goals across the entire organization in real-time.<\/p>\nFinally, Hagerty has grown 60 percent faster over the past 15 months through the culmination of a number of initiatives fueled in part by tech investments like Align.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
