Why do something real?
Exactly a day-to-day boredom can definitely create meticulous, relentless rhythm that continuously without differentiation. This is all just a blur. I walk into the office, the phone rings, I answer, someone asks a question and I answered and so on and so forth, day after day, month after month, year after year
.Back to the
Why Kickoff meetings?
For one, it allows you to vary the day as a special time and place of meeting as a special place. It also allows entire organizations to gather for a day or half a day to kick off the year.
We had a number of kickoffs in place. One year we were in the barn and another year at the swanky Chicago hotel. BBQ are my favorite, although the east coast club, a fitness complex in Chicago, not bad.
in one of our clients, their annual kickoff meeting is the culmination of his years. Every employee has to go in front of everyone and respond to some amusing, preconceived questions. It is all very entertaining and authentic culture builder. This is especially true when a key employee Carlos with his thick beard, not its annual "big picture" approach to development. This is a true story and told it the right way.
Stop the past, start the future now
In 2012, the kickoff meeting is absolutely kritična.Utjecajno kickoff gathering will allow all involved to put 2011 behind you. This is one of the best uses of time and money. It is important to distinguish between what the organization really was not 2011, and for most organizations, the 2011 mean wage cuts, layoffs, and feeling that our survival was at risk. The Kickoff meeting, history going back in time.
How often it is to illustrate the flip charts in 2011. The group answers questions and puts the answers to these flip charts too in categories such as "failures", "what is taught," "breakthroughs", "fiasco", "disappointed", "achievement", etc. Aspects of 2011 we taking in 2012, and they are leaving me behind, are also included. Then, in front of the room, read the spokespersons of the flip charts and there is a question and answer session with questions from the audience.
As the grand finale of the participants to stand up and say goodbye to 2011. Tears flowing, (no hugs) and then greeted with many cheers 2012, hand-clapping, hurrahs, and gales of laughter. Even when it is not very emotional, it is worthwhile and useful. All ready for the future and start anew. Game 2012, at.
One of the great aspects of this exercise is that employees come to appreciate all that has happened over the past 12 months. It also brings the end of the year. One season is over, and the possibility that the next season opens.
Future Vision is essential
lets kick off the lead and promote the appearance of three to five years of time in broad brush strokes and precise color picture for 2011. I subscribe to the idea that what determines how the organization works to present to dictate the future of living in the organization.
issue here is that most of us have a history of the organization filed in the future bin files. Typically, the organization operates unconsciously to live in the past. I wonder if GM, Chrysler and Lehman Brothers has a perspective that they would like to share with others.
kickoff provides a distinct future be made by the leadership group and chief executive officer. At this point, leadership standing and represents the future. Hopefully it's not something that has created a coffee that morning. Our clients are working and the development of the future during the previous two to three months. It is the culmination of a lot of work, and some of the participants are part of planning.
On Kickoff meetings we facilitate, the group usually bother with silly games and other growth and development. It's not all talk and people are just sitting there like you're watching television. There is a lot you can do with exercises to encourage good customer service and strong relationships. At one meeting, we rolled out a new set of values and guided exercises that allowed people to experience the new value directly interact with each other.
on the other kickoffs have been part of, the leadership has laid out what is going to be for everyone to go to Las Vegas or Cancun, along with props and skits. In both cases, company employees actually went to their destinations as a celebration of their accomplishments. It all started at the Kickoff meeting.
Get up and running immediately
After the presentation of leadership, there is usually an opportunity for the various departments of planning by showing how to improve and develop in order to deliver the company's future. Departments to look at their strengths and weaknesses and what they need to do to develop and improve in their areas of weakness.
There is much that can be done during the Kickoff meeting to help departments build cohesion and momentum. We have great exercises that encourage participants to give each other useful feedback on how I can improve internal customer service. Who sets the ground rules to facilitate this is business, not personal.
Everyone should accept the idea of continuous improvement as the bottom line. When a positive context is established, unresolved issues can be explored and clarified. Besides the strengths and weaknesses of feedback, the department will design the 2012 targets, action plans and the first quarter of the events that support the overall direction.
During the initial impact, new information can be given to members of the organization. If you lean initiatives will be part of the year or a new ERP or other software is implemented, the kick off meeting is the ideal time to start training. Why not take a chance? We are all together for the day-lunch-and the New Year began. So, go for it and that the whole kick wildly productive!
So, there you are
Now we'll re-cap. Why Kickoff business meetings?
- They put you in the past the past.
- They create the future you live in.
- They provide an opportunity for the Planning Department.
- you can start training and educational initiatives.
- All this, together with silly games and other fun distraction.
Such a deal!
So do it. Especially to do it this year, because I promise 2012 will not be anything like 2011, and you can hold me to it.
the real question is: Will you and your organization ready for the opportunities in the New Year
Let us know how it goes. We would love to hear your progress and discovery.
game to 2012th
