Culture statements, missions, visions, values, credos, secret handshakes, etc. The list goes on and on. At best, a megaton of company literature distracts you, employees, and customers alike. Not good.

Too much definition can become overwhelming. What happens then? Chaos! Confusion! Disinterest! Obviously, your motivational documents shouldn’t cause those. Yet small businesses need direction and vision, right?

So how do you curtail the catechisms and help employees stay focused? What’s essential and what’s excess? Watch my video and discover the only three motivational documents any small business needs.

Action Steps:

  1. Always have a Value Statement, Company Vision, and Cause to correspondingly define how your business does things, where it’s headed, and what it stands for.
  2. Stay focused by deciding which additional motivational documents actually matter and culling the rest.
  3. Use our comments section to tell us how you motivate employees.

Principles:

  1. Excess often hinders more than helps.
  2. Simple motivational documents are very effective at helping you and your workforce stay focused.
  3. Think beyond money when defining your business and its purpose.
