It is important to maintain communication between you and your employees focused on daily and weekly priorities. One way to do this is with a post-up board showing everyone the daily work load, color coded according to type of work.
In any organization the number one problem is lack of communication. This is true whether it is a small or large company, the family arrangement or even the volunteer organization where I work full time. When two or more people start working together you can bet your bottom dollar their biggest “thorn in the flesh” will be clearly, consistently communicating between themselves. Any type of Business Infrastructure you can develop to improve communication, such as the system above, will pay off big time. Your biggest challenge on any of these ideas? Systematizing and institutionalizing the Procedure so it will happen all the time, with you or without you.
