Reset the Standard

Stop culture drift by reinforcing what matters and resetting tolerance fast.

Practice Path

Learning supports the system. Reinforcement (MMI) makes it stick.

See how reinforcement works

Practice Paths are built on Guide Don't Drive™ and reinforced weekly through MMI.

What changes

Values show up in real behavior. Culture violations get addressed with the same clarity as performance issues. Consistency across teams, not pockets of excellence.

Weekly use

How to apply this path in your real work.

  1. 1Watch one module (15-20 min)
  2. 2Apply to one culture conversation that week
  3. 3Reflect: Did I name it clearly?
  4. 4Reinforce by recognizing culture champions

How this sticks

MMI focuses on one value per month. You define observable behaviors, practice holding to them, and build recognition systems that reinforce them.

Outcomes

  • Values translated into observable behavior
  • Accountability to culture, not just performance
  • Consistency across teams and locations
  • Culture as hiring/promoting/exiting criterion

Behaviors you practice

  • Name culture violations with clarity
  • Recognize culture champions publicly
  • Hire for values fit with rigor
  • Model the behaviors you expect

Who this works best for

Role: Leaders responsible for culture, HR partners supporting culture initiatives

Context: Best for organizations where values exist on walls but not in daily operations

What leaders do weekly

Not when they have time. Weekly. This is how leadership becomes consistent.

  • Reinforce one behavior standard.
  • Apply it in real work the same week.
  • Ask one guiding question before giving one answer.
  • Reset one tolerance the moment drift shows up.
  • Repeat until it becomes normal.
