The One Page Business Planning and Performance System

Sample One Page Business Plan — Management Team Development Plan

Within the next 12 months, evolve the existing management team into a vital growing force that:
• Fuels the growth of the company by seeing and being a part of the larger vision.
• Builds on its own energy and successes; learns from its failures/shortfalls.
• Expands it’s capacity to contribute to the overall management of the company.
• Develops an espirit de corps that is supportive of the individual, the team, and the company.
• Designs a work style/culture that is adaptable and flexible to move quickly and profitably to meet the needs of the customer
