Standards

Improve Consistency & Quality

Standards promote consistency and quality. Management standards are no different.

Our standards are applied through the free 1-page tools in The Toolkit for meeting management, planning, process improvement, and project oversight. Using standards reduces miscommunication, and you and your team will be respected for consistently producing high-quality work.

Lead with Integrity & Competence

Standard of Knowledge

The Index of Terms & Practices

The Index is the standard language of management; it breaks down barriers among departments. Its hierarchy of best practices and their definitions lets everyone collaborate and communicate easily.

Standard of Competence

The Milwaukee Model

The Milwaukee Model of Manager Development is a high standard of performance. It puts on one page what a manager needs to know and do. Its self-assessment shows you exactly how to advance your career.

The 1-page Pledge helps managers use their authority to lead their team in a positive and compassionate way. Its four questions will make you confidence you’re always doing the right thing.

How to Apply the Standards

What standards are you managing to today?

Our workbook, “Atoms & Orchestras,” shows how to apply these global standards to meetings, planning, supervision, and projects and processes. This video shows how The Index can keep you from missing something big.

Contact us if you’d like help, but the easiest way to try it is with the 1/4-Page Meeting Planner (at the top of the Toolkit).
