Having a vision and values is important. On of the hardest things for a company to do is to continually give an employee a sense of where the company is, where it is going, and how each individual fits in. You should be able to answer the following questions- Why are we here? What problem are we solving? How are we adding to society? And why should I follow you? Not only having a vision, but updating it often and communicating it regularly are key!
Communicating Vision Your employees need to know the future. They need to be on the same page as you, and you need ways to communicate with them regularly. This is a great opportunity to have a company-wide lunch, an all hands meeting, or a company newsletter.
Newsletter A newsletter is a great way to communicate with lots of employees at once. Update everyone on business objectives, new products created, marriages and babies, and upcoming events. These services will get you started.
Development Methodology How does your company deliver products to the market and make them better? Do you have a development methodology like Agile or Scrum or quality improvement methods like Six Sigma or Lean? Here are some reccomendations to get you started.
Values and Mission Having a vision and mission statement can be an excellent way to keep a team focused, a rallying cry to get behind. While they don't solve problems, they are a great framework to build a business around.
