I've noticed that reminders are one of the vital practices of effective leaders. They don't assume that a course of action is self-evident or memorable. They periodically restate why the team or organization is following a particular strategy. By doing so, they discourage drift and nudge key players to renew efforts to pull in the same direction.
There is another advantage. The "reminder moments" permit comments from people who may have thought or hoped that the previous strategy had changed.
It is far better to get those reservations on the table so they can be addressed than to permit them to go unnoticed and unresolved.
