How:
On the business side we need to look at 3 separate areas. The first is your company culture and HR. This is the lifeblood of your company and we need to pay close attention to what we do in this area. This should cover things from healthcare to flexible work hours, The second are is your Standard Operating Procedures and plans. This is how your company operates. How you do the things you do as a company. The third area is your cost controls and finances. Look at each of these areas and develop you list of goals for each. Then categorize them into must-have, like-to-have and someday. Then focus on the must-have and create your action goals.
