Best Year Yet Partner Ian Prosser, a business coach and consultant with 30 years experience, talks about how meetings are often a "complete waste of time" -- and what you can do about it.
2. Track your Plan
The Best Year Yet System continues for one year with face-to-face or virtual Monthly Review Sessions because it takes a year to learn new habits of behavior and productivity to deliver the results in the plan. In just a few hours each month a team scores their results and sets their business development goals for the next month.
Using the online planning and results-tracking and goal setting software called Producing Results Online® (PRO), the power of positive peer pressure drives the constant improvement in their scores on their Monthly Plan.
Financial data is the most easily tracked measure of success, but too often the data is produced in such a way that it tells about what has already happened, rather than a timely “upstream” information that allows plenty of time for course correction. Above all, data other than financial information needs to be tracked to ensure complete success. Most businesses do not have a way to track all-important intangible data which is so critical to overall company success – data that tracks behavior and personal performance. With PRO, they do.
While using the Best Year Yet System of goal setting software can initially seem like something ‘extra’ to do, it rapidly becomes ‘the way we do business’. The culture of meetings is transformed from a succession of frustrating conversations to a focus on results produced, individually and as a team.
Over the past nine years Best Year Yet has spent nearly a million dollars in the development of web-based, online goal planning software, trademarked Producing Results Online® (PRO), designed to support individuals, senior management and teams in tracking results throughout their lives and their business. This software has consistently increased business performance by providing transparency in the initial design, development and implementation of strategic plans.
Key to its success is the fact that it generates accountability or the results integral to the delivery of the annual strategic business goals..
PRO is now being used by thousands of teams worldwide providing a competitive advantage over more traditional consulting firms whose services are not augmented by a powerful software tool that makes the difference in the successful delivery of strategic plans. PRO is a core part of the Best Year Yet System, narrowing the gap between strategy and end-of-year results. It enables the methodology of the system to be reproducible in every client engagement.
