Operational Reviews – Keys to success • Short, Frequent, and Data-driven • Translate the importance of the data to the people in the meeting • Why is this important to the organization? • What are we doing to improve the information? • Make people accountable • Like strategy meetings, track decisions and actions and review at the next meeting • Consider a carrot/stick approach • May not have to be bonus related, since these are typically job responsibilities • Sometimes recognition alone works
Key Success Factors for Rare • The first few meetings require lots of prep-work – Plan for this work, and don’t worry about data that is updated to the day or week, but be sure to focus on the issue and decision to be made • Document the meeting calendar and ensure attendance – It is not easy with a leadership team located around the world. • Track decisions and action items – Show everyone you are making progress and real decisions. • Draw the continuity between the meetings – Link operational reviews and strategy meetings by topic. Discuss how they relate.
Setting and Keeping to the Agenda • Progress towards BSC measures and any commitments the leadership team has made to the organization or each other will drive the agenda • There is an open invitation to suggest topics but as the planning begins, usually a week after the last meeting, there will be a reminder (from Emily) to make suggestions • Brett will manage agenda setting, make final approval, and chair the monthly calls
