Guidelines

Be specific: "Start daily standups" not "communicate more"
Be behavioral: Focus on actions, not attitudes
Balance: Aim for 3-5 items per category
Celebrate Continues: Don't skip this section—recognize what's working
Assign owners: Unowned actions don't happen
One priority: If everything is important, nothing is
