Tuesday’s Tips — Missing Targets and Deadlines?
Are you missing key company targets? Do you find your performance declining in some way? Are you not sure what might be the cause of it? Bill has the perfect resource for you!
Bill was working with a manufacturing company and after moving to a new facility, they were having some pretty mysterious productivity problems. Production was falling off, they were behind on their targets and unable to catch up, and more.
Not being able to see the problem right away, Bill asked the team to order eight (8!) whiteboards. They then sat down and spent 45 minutes on what each of the metrics might be for each department.
This gave the entire team a clear vision and it set the expectation of what everyone needed to be striving for, each and every day. If you’re unclear what some of your departmental goals are, try this method!
