Have you got your quarterly themes sorted for this year?
Essentially you have six leavers you can pull in a professional services practice to grow and increase profitability:
Improve individual & team productivity
Enhance the skills of my team
Sell more to the right customers
Retain and grow existing customers
Add appropriate new offerings
Improve our tools
Which ones are you going to pull this year and have you got a plan in place?
One way I achieved growth was via the quarterly themes we would run. They would drive up the energy and give people a real focus. It was also great for building culture. We also integrated training into them so that it was reinforced and quickly applied.
Quarterly themes are a powerful tool for your business to align your employees, drive engagement, and achieve strategic goals. As a business leader, it's important to constantly be looking for ways to improve and grow your company, and quarterly themes have been a really effective way I have looked to achieve this over the years.
A well-crafted theme can foster a sense of shared purpose, boost morale, and improve focus. It should drive the business forward in structural ways that lasts as well as being enjoyable and not just one more thing on top of everything else people are trying to achieve.
We have put together The Ultimate Guide To Creating Effective Company Quarterly Themes. You can download it here.
Quarterly Theme Accelerators
Quarterly themes are great. They help the company focus and work towards a common goal. But coming up with them and executing them can be painful.
The same can be said around training. You know there are areas you need to train staff in but putting the plan together and executing can be hard.
We have pulled both of these together and done the heavy lifting for you.
We have created a menu of quarterly themes around common areas including:
driving growth
enhanced customer experience
operational excellence
innovation
employee experience
Each menu has options around training, workshops, KPI’s and competition, fun activities, surveys and focus groups, stories, technology and process improvement.
Bringing quarterly themes and training together enhances the success of both. Staff bring new insights and skills to old challenges and can apply them quickly to reinforce their learning and drive organisational improvement.
Get in touch and we can see if we are a fit to work together to help you grow this year.
