Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sarah sent her monthly report again today
Numbers, charts, and metrics lined up in a row
But her boss just skimmed and filed it away
Missing all the impact she helped the business grow
She talked about "completing audits" - that's the what
When she could've said "reduced compliance risk by half"

[Chorus]
Stop the output chatter, switch to outcome matter
Show them business value, not just tasks you scattered
Outputs tell the doing, outcomes show the winning
Transform how you're viewed - make strategic spinning
Three questions guide your way to executive display

[Verse 2]
Marcus waits for quarterly reviews to speak
While his peers email leadership every week
Proactive voices echo in the boardroom halls
Silent contributors fade behind the walls
Find your rhythm, set your beat
Don't let opportunity retreat

[Chorus]
Stop the output chatter, switch to outcome matter
Show them business value, not just tasks you scattered
Outputs tell the doing, outcomes show the winning
Transform how you're viewed - make strategic spinning
Three questions guide your way to executive display

[Bridge]
Take your jargon, flip the script
"Remediation" becomes "fixed the broken ship"
"Risk assessment" turns to "spotted danger zones"
Speak their language, claim your throne
Business words unlock the door

[Verse 3]
Check your last three reports you penned
Were they outputs or outcomes, my friend?
How often do you volunteer to share?
What's your cadence - monthly, never, or daily care?
Pick one technical term you always say
What's the business translation for display?

[Chorus]
Stop the output chatter, switch to outcome matter
Show them business value, not just tasks you scattered
Outputs tell the doing, outcomes show the winning
Transform how you're viewed - make strategic spinning
Three questions guide your way to executive display

[Outro]
Output language fades away
Outcome thinking saves the day
Make your contributions shine
Cross that strategic design line
