The ABC Decision Framework changed how we empower our team.
Steve Sorenson, Senior Director of Learning & Culture at Johnsonville, breaks down how to build a culture where your team makes decisions without waiting for permission.
Company culture training expert Steve Sorenson shares the ABC Decision Framework for employee empowerment and leadership development. Learn how to stop micromanaging, build organizational culture, and create decision-making frameworks that work in home services, HVAC, plumbing, and trades businesses. The behaviors you tolerate become your culture, here’s how to change that.
THE ABC FRAMEWORK:
→ A Decisions = Just do it (I don’t need to know)
→ B Decisions = Tell me after (so I can back you up)
→ C Decisions = Ask me first (financial or customer impact)
This one framework stops micromanaging and empowers your team overnight.
