Tired of setting goals that your team couldn’t care less about? Early on, that was my experience. The issue? It's wasn’t THEIR plan—it was MY plan. A goal without team buy-in is just a wish. Trust me, I learned it the hard way while sitting alone in a coffee shop, drowning in my own frustration.
"I help businesses like yours go from chaos to profit-generating machines."
If you want your team to care, make them part of the process. Here’s a quick rundown:
1. Reflect on the Good, Bad, and Ugly: What worked last year? What didn’t? Get it all down.
2. Extract Lessons: No win or fail is wasted if you learn from it.
3. Target Areas for Growth: Think revenue, profitability, staffing, and processes. Get specific.
4. Pick Your Battles: You can't fix everything at once. Pick 7-10 goals and commit.
5. Track and Tweak: Weekly meetings to see where you are and adjust as needed.
By the way, this is a discipline of top-performing companies - one of my high-growth clients started working on their 2024 sales forecast over a month ago.
So, you might be thinking, "Why the rush for 2024?" Simple. You're not just planning for next year; you're setting the foundation for the next five years or more.
