Why do the same issues keep coming back to your leadership meeting?
Most MSP leadership meetings run when someone remembers, with no fixed agenda, so this week’s fires crowd out next quarter’s plan. These three files help you map the meetings you run, give each one a set agenda and track your numbers, priorities and issues every week.

Six years of one MSP running its leadership team to a set rhythm, before selling for a strong valuation. Shared by Stuart Warwick and Ian Luckett of MSP Growth Hub on the scaleUP podcast.
“Without the framework for great conversations, anchored with great expectations, defined KPIs and consistency, it becomes a blancmange.”

Scorecard, Priority & Issues Tracker
Know in five minutes whether the week is on track. A weekly scorecard of 15 numbers, a monthly scorecard, a quarterly priority tracker and a running issues list.
From “when we remember” to a rhythm that runs
Use the files in order. Each one builds on the last.
Step 1
Map
List every leadership meeting you run today against the four core rhythms. Cut the ones with no clear purpose and add the ones that are missing.
Step 2
Set the agenda
Give each meeting a fixed agenda, a set day and time, a chair and a note-taker. The weekly L10 runs for 90 minutes, with an hour on solving issues.
Step 3
Hold it
Review the scorecard and priorities every week, work through the issues list most important first, and track whether the meetings actually happen.
