At Smart Workforce Solutions, we know that structured, action-driven meetings are the backbone of a high-performing team. Keeping meetings concise, focused, and results-oriented ensures that everyone remains accountable and motivated.
Here’s how we optimise our weekly meetings to drive productivity and alignment (Part Two):
1. Current 90-Day Goals & Feedback
- 90-Day Rocks: We review our quarterly goals alongside our 12-month plan, ensuring progress stays on track. This keeps the team focused on achieving meaningful milestones.
- Open Feedback: Sharing customer and employee feedback—both positive and constructive—helps us celebrate wins, identify improvement opportunities, and foster a culture of transparency.
2. To-Do Lists & Training Updates
- Accountability Check: We revisit tasks from last week’s to-do list, ensuring team members are following through on commitments. This strengthens accountability and ensures progress.
- Training Status: Our Training Manager provides updates on current programs, highlighting key achievements and ongoing skill development efforts that enhance team capabilities.
3. Risk Management & Business Scoring
- Risk Management Plan (RMP): Regularly reviewing business rules and risk practices ensures we stay resilient, proactive, and prepared for challenges.
- Business Rating (1-10): Team members score the business based on metrics like brand strength, financial health, and employee engagement. This sparks valuable discussions about areas needing attention and improvement.
4. Issues List & Meeting Evaluation
- Critical Issues: We tackle pressing concerns using the Identify, Discuss, Solve (IDS) formula from Traction. This method ensures actionable solutions and clear ownership of next steps.
- Meeting Effectiveness: At the end of each meeting, attendees rate the session (1-10) to evaluate how well it adhered to the rules and delivered value. This feedback helps us continuously refine our meeting process.
Why This Approach Works:
By combining clear accountability, open feedback, and focused problem-solving, our meetings become not just a place for discussion but a platform for action. This structure ensures that every meeting contributes directly to team alignment, productivity, and business growth.
