Practice goal-setting by defining your first set of Specific, Transparent, Elevating, and Periodic objectives by inventorying your pressing priorities.
What Are Sprint Rocks™?
Sprint Rocks™ are a short list of important initiatives your leadership team commits to complete in the next 30 days to create immediate forward progress.
They are set early—often before the organization has fully reverse-engineered priorities from the long-term plan—so the team can start executing quickly instead of waiting for “perfect clarity.”
Why Sprint Rocks™ Matter
Many organizations find themselves consumed by the “pebbles” — the urgent, day-to-day demands of serving customers and keeping operations running. While essential, these immediate tasks often overshadow the bigger strategic initiatives that truly drive growth. The challenge? Transformational projects are important, but rarely urgent — and as a result, they’re endlessly delayed, limiting the company’s ability to move forward and scale.
Sprint Rocks™ create protected space for those bigger moves—so the business doesn’t drift.
What Happens in a Sprint Rocks™ Session
A Summit OS Guide™ facilitates a working session where your leadership team:
1) Inventories your “hot topics”
Each leader arrives with a list of the most important initiatives they believe should be completed in the next 30 days.
2) Turns ideas into deliverables
The team converts each item into a clear deliverable with an action verb.
3) Prioritizes a small set
The team selects a handful of Sprint Rocks™ that are realistic to complete before the next meeting.
4) Tracks progress in your digital portal
Your Summit OS Guide™ uploads Sprint Rocks™ into your digital portal so the team can track and review progress together in the next meeting.
What You’ll Walk Away With
After the Sprint Rocks™ session, your leadership team will have:
- A prioritized list of 30-day execution priorities
- Clear deliverables and accountability for each Rock
- Momentum going into the next phase of planning and execution
- A system for tracking progress week-to-week
