Meet With Employees

If your business has 3 or more employees or associates you need to meet with them at least once a month. There are may issues that can't easily be discussed or resolved during regular business hours and this will give everyone a chance to  talk.  These meetings can even be called get-togethers to make it more casual but the purpose is really business. It is a chance for employees to recall situations that came up and ideas to handle them in the future.

Management can explain anything new and review areas that need improvement. But the best meetings will let the employees speak more and get out anything bothering them or offer new ideas. It also can build company loyalty and a chance for one person to help another. Many of these employees deal directly with your customers and clients so you want to hear from them. You may be surprised at some of the great ideas that come from these meetings. These meetings should be a "must attend" event to most effective.
