Title: The Silent KPI Killer: How Misaligned Team Incentives Undermine Strategic Execution This blog will explore how well-meaning but misaligned incentive structures across leadership and teams can quietly sabotage progress toward critical KPIs. Drawing on Peter C. Fuller’s established themes of operational integrity, executional accountability, and performance management, the piece will offer actionable insight on diagnosing misalignments and realigning team motivations with strategic business outcomes.

Ever feel like your business is stuck spinning its wheels, despite working harder than ever? You’re not alone. Many business owners I speak with are investing significant energy into growth, yet their valuation remains stagnant or even declines. The issue isn’t effort; it’s alignment.

When I first started helping business owners, I quickly realized that focusing solely on revenue or short-term goals often misses the bigger picture. Instead, aligning your entire operation around valuation-driving metrics is the key to unlocking sustainable growth and real value. Metrics like revenue concentration, churn rate, and employee engagement aren’t just numbers—they’re powerful indicators of your company’s health.

Let me share a quick story: one client of mine, let’s call him Bob, grew his company impressively, hitting all his revenue targets. Yet, when it came time to sell, he discovered a $35 million gap between his perceived value and actual market value. The culprit? He overlooked critical valuation-drivers like concentration of revenue. He spent three additional years correcting this misalignment.

Don’t let this happen to you. Start thinking about your company’s growth through a valuation-first lens. Every decision, every strategy, every meeting should tie back to metrics that truly matter, not just revenue. Imagine what your company could achieve with this clarity and alignment.

Your business deserves more than just growth—it deserves value. Value that you can leverage for your future, your family, and your freedom. If you’re ready to see how aligning your business around valuation-driving metrics could transform your trajectory, let’s chat. Your future self will thank you.
