!["If you look at places where performance not only gets to the highest level, but stays there and stays there long beyond the time of the leader, it's because the leaders didn't make improvement a separate set of projects added on to everyone's day, but helped everybody see how it became part of the work starting with their own."](https://www.valuecapturellc.com/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/Ken-Segel-Habitual-Excellence-2-1.jpg)

!["...the need for top leaders to shift from being quick deciders of the stuff that floats up to them, to being the coaches that ask the right questions about the problem solving and where it's occurring."](https://www.valuecapturellc.com/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/Ken-Segel-Habitual-Excellence-3-1.jpg)
