Remember that plan you wrote a few months ago? Well, how’s it working for you? The days of a static annual plan are past. But the temptation to just “wing it” everyday is dangerous. Why not a dynamic (constantly changing) planning process?
Let your team know the broad measurable goals for the next three months. Ask them to prepare the action steps of how you will get there, and then once a month meet to review the progress and revise action steps or realign the goals.
There is going to be some sort of plan in place. You can either lead that effort or respond to it...what’s your choice?
