progress informally too.

to be made, make sure that you use SMART to check that
your outcomes are delivered.
4. Give Ownership for Delivery - Pass the monkey! Always
ensure that your people fully sign up to ownership of delivery
of their objectives and goals.
5. Have a Simple Process – It’s more likely to create value when
any process you have is simple to use and easy to
understand.
6. Communicate Process Clearly – Clearly communicating to all
of your people will ensure they are fully motivated and
committed.
7. Agree and Meet All Timescales - Ensure that you meet all
the timescales you commit to, or don’t commit at all.
8. Keep it Simple - As you work with your people, use simple
steps for them so that they see the progress they are making.
