Standards

Improve Consistency & Quality

Standards promote consistency and quality, and management standards are no different.

Our standards are applied through the 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 & Ability

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.

The Index is the standard language of management; it breaks down barriers among departments. Its single-screen framework of definitions and best practice lets everyone communicate clearly and collaborate creatively.

The Milwaukee Model is a shared—and 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.

How to Apply the Standards

Standards only create value when you use them

The tools in our Toolkit are free. Our workbook, “Atoms & Orchestras,” shows how to apply the standards to meeting management, planning, process improvement, supervision, and project management.

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