It’s really important for businesses in the West Midlands to integrate team development into their business growth plans.

Without a Route Plan How Can Your Team Reach Your Desired Destination?

Imagine planning a trip to somewhere you have never been before.  Somewhere you really want to go, because you know it’s a great place to be.

Would you set off without checking a map or firing up the Satnav?  No, of course not, how could you possibly expect to get there?

You would make a plan, something along the lines of:

  • Where do we want to go?
  • When shall we set off?
  • What form of transport shall we use?
  • What is the best route?
  • How long will it take to get there?
  • What will we need during the journey?
  • What shall we do when we get there?
  • How much will the trip cost?

Exactly the same approach can be used in business to avoid costly delays, and benefit from team participation.

But many business owners don’t have a plan, and in some cases, they don’t even have a destination in mind. They just plough on, “too busy to stop and plan”.  They keep doing the same things and hoping the outcome will get them somewhere they would want to be.

And how productive is the team if that’s not clear?

Once you have a firm destination, you can work backwards to your starting point  This gives you a really clear view of what you need to do to get there. You can then regularly check your progress once you have set off.  And, of course, you can tweak it as necessary in the event of unexpected occurrences.

This approach to planning works every time, without fail.

Let me simplify the business strategy planning process and team development in your West Midlands business.  This could be through one to one coaching sessions or an intensive team business planning workshop.

If you have an ultimate destination in mind for your business and your team is fully on board, there is no better, more efficient way of getting there.
