Leveraging Up!

Don’t Rely On He-Said-She-Said

Remember that game we used to play as children?

Telephone? A line of people forms, and the first person begins by

whispering a phrase into the ear of the person next to them. By the
time this whispered message traveled down the line, it was

hilariously unrecognizable when compared to the real thing.
Communication can happen just like that in the office; however, it

doesn’t always end in laughs, but rather conflict. Skip the game and
make sure any information you are receiving is coming straight from

the source.

Relate Routine Efforts to

Overall Goals

This will enable Managers and employees to more clearly visualize

how their team and individual work contribute to the larger company
strategies and success. Sometimes people lose track of how even

the smallest routine task is benefiting the end-goal. Everything
matters, so creating an environment of performing with intention is

crucial to drive a business to success.
