Dear Subscriber, |
|
In the last couple of months I’ve seen a smattering of good news on the economic front. I still predict a long, hard road ahead, but at least the trajectory seems to be pointing in the right direction now. But as business picks up, the challenge for many companies is going to be figuring out how to manage their growth.
This will be especially hard, as hiring is going to lag the rise in demand. The volatile economy has made senior leaders reluctant to bring in new people, even with some promising indicators. Unfortunately, this decision has a large impact at the front line of a company, both for leaders and team members.
Managers have to figure out how to get everything done, and employees have to keep the increasing pressure from stealing their job satisfaction. Daily management offers a solution to both groups.
Back in March, I did an article on the 9 Steps to Developing a Daily Management System. Continuing on that theme-I think it is that important-this month’s featured article outlines the basics of Daily Management. I’ve also created a Daily Management Worksheet to help get you started.
Finally, I’ve made my Daily Management Boot Camp the featured product for this month. This intensive, high-value training and coaching session will give you the edge you need to beat the competition, and keep your job from beating you.
And, as always, best wishes on your Lean journey.

The Secret to Successfully Running a Lean Office: Daily Management
The unfortunate truth is that most leaders, especially in an office environment, don’t have as good of an idea of what is going on as they think they do.
If you are the manager of an administrative team, there’s a good chance that the last comment offended you. If it did, ask yourself the following questions…MORE
