Suggest: spend first minute (everyone) reviewing the board and flagging the tickets they want discussed.

They suggest always having two people allocated as a facilitator. They can pair/rotate.

Whenever a strategic decision can or must be made, that is an indication of a potential FL3 system

Questions to identify FL2 systems
1. What products and services are for paying customers? What services are aimed at end customers?
2. Are there supporting products and services? Building blocks.
3. Are there enabling functions that enable the creation of products and services?
4. Does the organization have pop up systems? Eg temporary teams or units to address a specific problem or special request

Steps for topology
1. ID potential FL2 systems
2. Connect FL1 to FL2 systems
3. Remove unnecessary FL1 systems
4. Identify need for coordination between FL2 systems
5. ID FL3 systems to link strategy and work flow

This little book is amazing! Every page is a gem. I need to buy it

Think about is as an INVESTMENT budget, not a COST/SPEND budget

Tools for creating focus at FL3
- Sequencing work
- Timeboxing
- Limiting outcomes in process
- Budgeting

Movable i.e. there is movement on a board in coordination conversations
Long term outcomes drive medium- and short-term outcomes as well as flight items
Clear when outcomes influence each other (can support each other OR be contradictory)

Improve the quality of outcomes
1. Link to other outcomes & flight items
2. Define outcomes not outputs
3. Outcomes are measurable & moveable
4. Does the outcome help the customer or the company?
5. Outcomes are believable & achievable
6. Outcomes linked to a point in time by when they should be achieved

Been meaning to read this for years and thought the week of Donald Trump's inauguration was as appropriate a time as any.
