Putting Your Business Plan into Action

Finally, take swift and decisive action. Follow your plan. Monitor your progress. Be persistent and, at the same time, be flexible, ever on the lookout for changes in the external environment that require changes in your Strategies and Tactics.

Whenever you find that you or your business are getting bogged down with little progress toward your goals, perform a GOSPA Analysis. Reexamine your Goals, Objectives, Strategies, Plans and Actions. Most importantly, remain forever vigilant. Be on the lookout for unnecessary redundancies and complexities that so often take hold. And when they do, root them out. Your battle cry must be, “Keep it simple!”

Have a wonderful and productive month!
