You Choose Important vs. Not Important
These 4 Quadrants were created by General Dwight Eisenhower and popularized by Stephen Covey in his book: The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People
•Who are our key stakeholders?
•What are their needs?
•What is the G.A.P. between stakeholder needs and results?
•How do we routinely measure, analyze, and improve results?
•Are people held accountable and rewarded for results?
•How well are we meeting stakeholder needs?
•Do we have survey results of satisfaction:Residents/families?Employees?
•Do we have broken or unclear work flow processes? Look for redundancy, rework, waste.
•Are departments aligned with common goals preventing bickering, and non-cooperation?
•Do we have the right people? Are they aligned with our goals?
•What are we doing to recruit & retain the best talent?
•What are we doing to develop our people?
•Are mission, vision, and values known and embraced?
•What are our strategic objectives/priorities?
• Do we trust our leaders?
• How well do they communicate
• Do they drive each element of this leadership cycle?
