People know when you're going to check-in
People expect consequences1) Establish outcomes up front

Dictating the process makes it yours and takes away innovationEstablish the metrics for success
Let people decide how they will get there2) Agree to regular check-ins

People don't need to feel micromanaged if check-ins are scheduled
If they are mostly on track, leave them alone…If they are going off track, provide coaching…

3) Provide accountabilityIf something doesn't match the expectations - call people on it
