Defining the Organisational Structure is pivotal
to your success, even if you think it's already clear.
A strong structure improves efficiency
and recognises responsibilities and progression paths.
Discuss the structure at the Kick-off - don’t just show it.
Reinforce points of authority in the team.

7. Eye on the Prize
Establish clear, measurable and realistic goals. Monitor
progression.
Celebrate as a team when you achieve and exceed your goals!

8. Motivate and Energise!
All businesses will experience fatigue,
it's natural when your team is working hard.
Management need to recognise this and take precautions
to keep the team energised.
This in turn increases employee motivation and staff retention.
Fun team building activities at your kick-off
to keep energy levels high.
Have fun together outside of the workplace!

creating the building blocks for success”
