EP 56: Q4 Push & Priorities
Manage episode 345413934 series 3322264
We are all rounding out the year and focused on sales, strategy and next year's objectives. As you are focused on these corporate items, don't forget that many employees are thinking about leaving your company after the holidays. Some of this is the natural course of things, but much of it is due to a lack of communication. Huddling with your Team is critical at all times, but especially in Q4. Lots of new goals and strategies are in the works, but does your Team have any clue as to what they will be expected to do next year? Many of us wait until the plan is 100%, but what that leaves at risk is employees making a mis-informed decision about their future value and an opportunity to better inform your strategy planning. 70% plan is good enough, trust your people to execute the rest. When employees are kept in the dark until the last moment, they begin to wonder if this company is where to best deliver their value is, leading to them looking elsewhere for purpose. When Leaders wait until the last minute to publish objectives, you create goals that are not informed with what is achievable on the ground. Give yourself to the opportunity to build the best plan with your Team's input and the opportunity to retain the human capital needed to accomplish these goals. Plus, it's just good culture.
