6 questions to guide staff meetings 모바일 바카라

As the CEOs with whom I work focus in on our 2016 plans, we start with our time management goals – how to use time more effectively. We’re redistributing time for one-on-one and small group meetings, to focus on dealing with the “need to know” and “need-to-help” issues; we’re also delegating time that we spend on activities which others can use, so we can focus on more strategic activities.

Example: last year one CEO reduced his time reviewing invoices by re-structuring the process and empowering someone else to handle most of it; the reduction in 15% of his time allowed him to focus on sales and increase revenues 25%!

Alan Mulally, former CEO of Ford, who spoke to 모바일 바카라 CEOs in NYC, suggested the following six question formula that he used in his Performance Review Meetings, and which any person running a meeting can use with subordinates or partners:

1. Where are we going? (Let’s make sure we’re aligned on Strategy and Culture)
2. Where are 모바일 바카라 going? (Are 모바일 바카라 using your time on the most important strategic areas?)
3. What is going well? (Let’s acknowledge and celebrate what’s working!)
4. Where can we improve? (Remember, we’re focused on continuous improvement!)
5. How can I help 모바일 바카라? (Tell me so I can help!)
6. How can 모바일 바카라 help me? (Seeing the big picture, what else can 모바일 바카라 do to contribute to the success of the team?)

Finally, the person running the meeting needs to understand that there are four types of “help” that the person can provide, and needs to decide which is appropriate given the context:

1. Directing – here’s what to do
2. Delegating – here’s the task, 모바일 바카라 can figure it out; but if 모바일 바카라 need help, ask
3. Supporting – how can I help 모바일 바카라 with what 모바일 바카라’re doing?
4. Coaching – what do 모바일 바카라 think 모바일 바카라 can do about this, and what would make it work best?

From a long-term perspective, leadership coaching, is most valuable, but given short-term needs, sometimes other forms may be preferred.
