Running a company is virtually like the inner working pieces of a good-sized machine. One part stops working or snags, and KABOOM! the machine blows up.
How does this relate to business? Your company is made up of employees, services, repair/maintenance personnel, office equipment, IT, quality control, sales, marketing, hiring, etc. The most efficient method is to hold regular weekly staff meetings whereby agreements are formulated for the important upcoming week's functions and production.
Here are some suggestions or ideas on ways to conduct a staff meeting:
* Select a time and place that works so EVERY employee may be present and represented. One might hold these over a lunch hour, having each bring their own food one day a week and eating together while meeting; PLEASE ENSURE TO FOLLOW YOUR EMPLOYEE LABOR LAWS AS THESE VARY STATE TO STATE REGARDING SUCH
MEETINGS - in some the employer must pay the employee for this hour if such a meeting is considered "working".
* Come prepared! Have the above prepared in advance; bring your notes and the sequence of items to cover so the meeting goes smoothly. * Focus on and acknowledge all wins and successes of the group. Note again that "COORDINATION" is the key word here and should be your entire purpose and focus for the meetings.
Adding a staff meeting each week will not only bolster production, but may also help your company work and feel more like a team. Craig Ferreira, CEO
