occur , I urge you to prioritize one goal and make sure everyone is on board to achieving it .
Scaling a company takes time — it ’ s all about taking a step forward , checking in , and adjusting accordingly . This can only happen if there are regular check-ins and goals . One such goal is the quarterly goal that allows for small wins , which leads to your company ’ s focus on its No . 1 priority .

Communication Rhythm Is Established And Information Moves Through The Organization Accurately And Quickly
Meetings have gotten a bad rap , with some corners eschewing the benefits of meetings . However , I believe daily , weekly , monthly , quarterly , and annual “ Meeting Rhythms ” help to address the No . 1 challenge people face when working together : communication .
It might sound counterintuitive to have this many meetings , but when executed properly , they actually save everyone a lot of time in the long run . Communication will become much more open and smoother , and your team will have the clarity and feedback it needs to focus on the company ’ s No . 1 priority .

Every Facet Of The Organization Has A Person Assigned With Accountability For Ensuring Goals Are Met
Getting accountabilities clear throughout the organization is crucial . There should be one accountable person assigned to each
cell within the organization , and this needs to be clear throughout the organization . Of course , this doesn ’ t mean this person is the boss or gets to make all the decisions .

Ongoing Employee Input Is Collected To Identify Obstacles And Opportunities
Ah yes , data — both measurable and immeasurable — will fuel clear decision-making . This is the first key component for qualitative data you ’ ll need to guide the business . It is critical for senior leadership and middle managers to engage their employees in data collection from within the company . In other words , roll up your sleeves and prepare to take notes .
Here are some guidelines we recommend :
• Collect data from your employees , especially your sales channels and those on the front line as they are closest to the action .
• Senior leaders should talk to one employee a week . Here is the question they should ask : “ What should the company start / stop / keep doing ?”
• Pay attention to the “ stops ,” as this will give you an idea of the roadblocks your people face and what to eliminate .
