Close the gap between
strategy and results
Every strategy, every transformation, every push for pace comes down to the same thing: how your managers actually operate, day to day.
Taking ownership. Making decisions. Driving change.
Rekindle builds those behaviors – at scale, through daily practice.
Behaviors tied to business results
Builds habits through daily on-the-job application
10 minutes a day, 12 months, 7 capabilities
THE PROBLEM
The hard part starts after the strategy is set
Companies spend millions and months to launch new operating models.
The strategy is well thought out. Incentives aligned. The townhalls, the cascades, the communication – done.
Then Monday morning arrives and people work the same way they always have
Busy fighting fires and falling back on old habits.
The plans and rollouts matter – they signal clarity and commitment.
But they don’t build the behaviors.
Behaviors are only built through
daily practice — or they aren’t built at all
THE STAKES
Whatever your business is driving, it hinges on what your managers do – or don’t do – every day.
Moving faster
Your competitors are compressing decision cycles. The board wants pace and the plans enable it.
But pace is set by whether a manager three levels down decides today or escalates and waits.
Transforming
New operating model, AI adoption, restructuring, a new leadership framework – the design work gets done.
Whether it sticks depends on thousands of managers working differently when no one is watching.
Operating with a playbook that’s constantly changing
The environment shifts faster than any plan— there’s no single answer to prescribe from the top.
The work needs to be redesigned workflow by workflow, by managers who take initiative and drive it.
THE CAPABILITIES
Rekindle builds the behaviors underneath execution
Seven capabilities where execution most often breaks down — built at the behavior level, through ten minutes of daily practice, on the job.
Decision-Making & Strategic Thinking
Making timely calls with imperfect information, connecting daily work with business goals.
Ownership & Initiative
Seeing what needs doing and doing it, without waiting for direction.
Experimentation & Informed Risk-Taking
Trying new ways of working, changing course on evidence, moving before you’re certain.
Resilience & Adaptability
Staying effective through pressure, ambiguity, and constant change.
Execution & Prioritization
Focusing on what moves the business, delegating, protecting time for what matters.
Influence & Cross-Team Collaboration
Shaping outcomes across teams, communicating with authority, managing up and across.
Leading & Coaching Teams
Building people who take ownership instead of fixing everything yourself.
Under these seven sit 26 specific, observable behaviors like raising problems early with proposed solutions, holding teams accountable, and keeping stakeholders updated without being chased.
And they’re built the only way behaviors are ever built: through daily practice in the flow of real work, over time.
Already have a framework?
Most of our clients do – a leadership standard, a competency model, language of your own. It stays at the center. Rekindle builds the behaviors underneath it, through daily practice.

THE MECHANISM
How Rekindle Works
01
Daily practice.
Ten minutes a day
Each day, one specific insight, a reflection on it, and a specific action to take in their real work. The next day, the next one.
That loop – insight, reflection, action, feedback – is what builds the behavior.
02
Twelve months, by design
The twelve-month arc separates lasting behavior change from one-off workshops or motivation that fizzles out.
68% of managers are still actively practicing after Month 12. Self-paced alternatives typically hold 10–15%.
03
Measurement you can
take to the CFO
Engagement tracked continuously.
Behavior change assessed at month six and beyond.
You’ll know what shifted, where, and whether it held.
