How a masterclass works
Ten episodes.Ten workbooks.One certification.
The episodes introduce and explore the concepts. The workbooks make you do something about them.

The episodes
Ten filmed episodes, each built on a single idea.

The workbooks
One for every episode. Yourself, your team, the people you serve — ending in what you will do in the next 24 hours, 7 days and 30 days.

The assessment
A final assessment across all ten episodes.

The certification
OPOD™ Certified. Pass the assessment and it is yours.
Included with every masterclass — the full Game Changer library, every interview broken down into analysis and action.
Episode 4 · The Power of Details
Your team walks past the same small faults every day and never fixes them.
What is the actual cause?
Choose one. Be honest — nobody is watching.
Teams do not naturally focus on details. They focus on tasks.
Leaders create detail sensitivity.
When leaders notice details, teams notice details.
When leaders ignore details, teams ignore details.
This masterclass explores how leaders create experiences guests remember, return to and talk about — and what that demands of you, every day, in front of your team.
