Consistency and structure are key to managing a high-performing remote team. At Smart Workforce Solutions, our Start of Week (SOW) meetings have transformed team efficiency, communication, and accountability. Here’s how our Monday meetings set the tone for success:
How Our SOW Meetings Work
Org Chart Review – We start by reviewing the company’s organisational chart, ensuring everyone understands team structures, reporting lines, and any role updates—especially useful for new hires.
Core Values & Professional Principles – Each week, we discuss one of our 14 core values or principles to strengthen company culture. Team members share their insights, embedding these values into daily operations.
Individual Reports – Every team member gives a quick 20-second update, covering:
A positive highlight (personal or professional)
Their 3 big rocks (key tasks) for the week
Any deadlines they’re working towards
Support needed from the team to achieve their goals
CEO Key Messages – Daimien closes the meeting with important updates and strategic insights, aligning the team’s focus for the week ahead.
These meetings create alignment, accountability, and motivation, ensuring everyone is set up for success.
