Create a strategic plan for your business or department to thrive.<\/em><\/h2>\n<p>Happy New Year! As we ring in a new year, we busy ourselves with reflecting on the past year (I\u2019m sure we can all agree, this past year was a doozy) and forge ahead with goals for the year to come. As a recruitment agency, we have successfully helped startups, businesses and organizations save time and money as well as\u00a0 grow through finding the best and brightest talent for their teams. Regardless of what your business goals are this year, it\u2019s helpful to build out a strategic plan to overview just how you will address your business\u2019s pain points.<\/p>\n<p>Begin by asking yourself three questions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>What do you want to do? (what pain points to do you want address?)<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>How are you going to do it? (what will this take; of your time money and assets?) <\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>What would happen if you did what you want to do? (think five years down the road, how will this improve and impact your business then?)<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>By asking these questions, you\u2019ll begin a framework to strategically plan out your year. After you\u2019ve answered these questions go a step further and determine how you will measure your success. What is the ROI that you will look into? Conversions, sales, new business? As you narrow down exactly what you will be looking for and measuring, you\u2019ll be able to not only own your strategy, you\u2019ll also be able to successfully communicate and champion this strategy to your team and get them onboard.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps you\u2019ve highlighted multiple pain points to address within your strategy. Additional questions that are helpful to consider as you narrow your plan are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>How do your goals and strategy align with your business\u2019s values?<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>What projects will you take on- how large and long will they be (a full year, or a quarter long project, for example)?<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Will you need to partner or outsource work to meet your goal?<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve found that your strategic plan include finding amazing new talent to add to your team, we\u2019d love to help you achieve them! <a href=\"http:\/\/scionstaffing.com\/contact-us\/\">Contact us<\/a> today to learn how Scion can <a href=\"http:\/\/scionstaffing.com\/scion-staffing-position-we-fill\/\">partner with you<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Start off the new year of 2021 the right way!
