    OFF-TOPIC 
    Well we are back to the same old routine....nothing was really surprising or mind numbingly shocking. Or have I just become numb and expect too much. Maybe I was expecting more....I do however hope it gets better and the end will be a real mind f@ck of WOW!

    Suggestion on Roles & Responsibilities with KPI's

    One of my biggest challenges is implementing a 1 page roles and responsibilities with KPI's for each of my staff members. Every time I review or look at a R&R, I feel it does not hit the right spot or its too detailed/overwhelming and its not result orientated. I don't mind adding an additional...

    A fundamental question for any entrepreneur: What do I want from my business?

    NOTABLE! 
    Fantastic post!!!! Interesting enough I have scratched some of my business ideas based on a similar principle you have mentioned. I simplified it for myself by asking one question related to my business ideas: „Will this buy me a private jet to take me anywhere I want to go?“ In fact, i...

    Game of Thrones Season 8 Thread (SPOILERS)

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Yup, I was disappointed about the death of the night king and also thought it ended quite suddenly after such a long build up. But then again, has GOT ever disappointed? I can’t wait to see what they are plotting next. I have faith that it will be mind boggling and unexpected.

    trello works very well although we moved to wekan because its securer as its loaded on our server and only our employees can access it.

    Weekly stand up meeting

    I like you last point on the breakout topics - will definitely introduce that. Currently I am using a partitioned white board (Top task for the week, uncompleted from last week, and complete) We use sticky notes, each person or department has a color and put the tasks on it in the correct...

    Weekly stand up meeting

    HI Belgiandude, max 13 employees attend and the meeting takes 30 to 45 minutes. My question is what is relevant? I also have employees discussing unimportant items as if they are trying to justify or show that they are doing work.

    Weekly stand up meeting

    For the past few month I have been trying to get the best out of my employees at so called shop floor meeting. Once a week we stand at our white board and discuss tasks past, in progress and what needs to be escalated. Everyone has to present his 2 new top tasks for the week, discuss...

    One of my favorite one liners: Getting rich is not a goal. $10 million within 5 years is a goal. Love it!!!

    Short One Liner That Had A Strong Impact On You

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Sure we cut cut the marketing budget in half, as long as you tell me which half. This was said at a Mercedes Shareholders meeting when someone said the marketing budget was too high. I totally agree with his response because it’s so difficult to measure the exact effect of marketing.

    I've Read UNSCRIPTED!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I’ve read Unscripted and loved it - was a bit long at times compared to TMF but definitely worth it. It was most definitely more in detail than TMF but loved both and they truly contributed to my life. Just do it.

    Setting Goals

    EXECUTION 
    Not all, great to get contributions. You need to first take a white paper approach and just write down what want! This is not a one time process, this might take done time - keep the paper with you, on you night stand, at work, at gym. Ideas come on an adhoc basis and cannot be forced. Give it a...

    Setting Goals

    EXECUTION 
    Can’t agree with you more. I have my goals set and yes they are 3 and I am working towards them. It’s still very interesting to see different approaches and so see if I am the right track. I did enjoy the notion of a 24 hour routine - different approach.
