What you'll learn:
Define and achieve your agency’s goals.
Focusing on the importance of creating meaningful goals for the entire agency to focus on will help you define your goals and create the organizational alignment needed to achieve them. As the ‘Spider Diagram’ Framework will teach you, it is crucial to develop an agile planning process that will always allow your plan to evolve while focusing on moving toward your agency’s vision. This will keep your team focused on the big goals and cut out the trivial tasks that aren’t driving results.
Build a System of Management to organize your team.
Most people have never been taught how to be great managers, and while learning on the fly is great, we focus on two parts of great people management: your management style and system. Building a culture of empowerment is vital in allowing your leaders to focus on the business, not just in the business. Then, you’ll define your ‘System of Management’ with structured one-on-ones, team huddles, reward programs, position descriptions, and more to help measure what matters.
Build a more profitable agency & healthier balance sheet.
Guided by the financial guru of independent agencies, Carey Wallace of Agency Focus, you will walk through every step of first demystifying the financial information and then focus on the ways that you and your team can improve the financial health and value of your agency, with benchmarks for success that will allow you to hold your agency to the standards of the best-in-class.
