Welcome to Acceleration Meetings โ the fourth core component of the Howwe methodology.
While great strategies set the direction, it's rhythm and accountability that keep everything moving forward. Acceleration Meetings give your teams exactly that โ a simple, structured way to stay aligned and maintain momentum week after week.

๐ What is an Acceleration Meeting?
Acceleration Meetings are short, focused check-ins held on a regular basis by teams working with Most Important Goals and Company Initiatives.
Theyโre not traditional status meetings โ theyโre action-oriented touchpoints that help your team stay connected, focused, and agile.
