What are the goals in your business?  Do you have them written down?  Should you?

We look at how goal setting can make a big difference in your company.

We break down how we use goals within our company and how they have helped us to increase revenue.

How does a 5 year goal articulate with your annual, quarterly and weekly goals and how does that drive your business.

We look at SMART Goals

  • Specific
  • Measurable
  • Assignable
  • Realistic
  • Time Based

I discuss the work of Ivy Lee and the work that he did at Bethlehem Steel for Charles M Scwab.  Schwab paid him the equivalent of $400,000.  What was that advice and how did it change his company.

We look at Dwight D Eisenhowers quote "Plans are useless, but planning is indispensable."
