Rhythm methodology
Dream big.
Execute bigger.
Your Big Hairy Audacious Goal (BHAG) isn’t just a slogan. It’s the
destination. But without a real plan, it’s just wishful thinking.
That’s why the Rhythm methodology was created—a step-by-step system designed to take companies from big vision to big results. As companies began to grow and word spread, the methodology became RHYTHM: How to Achieve Breakthrough Execution and Accelerate Growth, a WSJ and USA Today bestselling book by strategy execution expert (and our co-
founder) Patrick Thean.

The Rhythm methodology isn’t just a theory—
it’s a proven execution system
That’s where Think, Plan, Do® comes in
Think, Plan, Do gives you a structured framework to prevent that from happening. This proprietary, battle-tested methodology is
the foundation that sets Rhythm Systems apart—and the reason our clients don’t just make plans; they actually execute and win.
As businesses expand, alignment fractures, execution slows, and growth stalls.

Big goals? Meet the tools that help get you there
Winning Moves®
If you’re banking on last year’s momentum to carry you forward, good luck with that. Winning Moves are 2-3 game-changing strategies that actually move the needle and keep you scaling instead of stalling.
And with Rhythm software, you won’t just talk about them—you’ll execute them flawlessly.
Cascade to Teams
Imagine a world where your entire company knows the top priorities, how success is measured, and their role in making it happen.
That’s why cascading your strategy down to teams is a game-changer. Cascading isn’t a nice-to-have. It’s the key to making progress.
With Rhythm software, you control what teams can see—whether it’s full visibility into executive dashboards or restricted access for sensitive teams like HR, so teams can easily stay aligned and accountable.
13-Week Race®
“We’ll get it done later” never works.
The 13-Week Race is your quarterly execution playbook that keeps your team focused, accountable, and actually getting things done. With Rhthm Software, you’ll track progress, spot problems early, and course-correct in real time—so you’re always sprinting, never scrambling.
Red, Yellow, Green® (RYG)
By defining exactly what success (Green), caution (Yellow), and failure (Red) look like, your team stays laser-focused on measurable outcomes—not vague aspirations. Meetings change from status updates to fixing what’s
in the red. Leadership has quick visibility into what’s being achieved and what’s not.
And with Rhythm software, it’s basically done for you. Rhythm Intelligence™ suggests success criteria for each goal, so you can instantly see what’s Green (or even SuperGreen), what’s at risk, and what initiatives are straight-up failing—before it’s too late.
Is your BHAG a Big Hairy Audacious Goal, or a Barely Half-Assed Guess?
If your BHAG isn’t getting your team excited and focused, we’ve got the guide to help you make it bold, clear, and actually achievable.
THE SYSTEM THAT HELPS YOU SLEEP AT NIGHT
With Rhythm, we feel prepared to
take on each quarter and can
anticipate results before it’s too late.”
I have seen our organization transform its ability to define where we're going and execute as a result of applying those principles and using the Rhythm tools to facilitate that.
