Many people look to technology to solve their toughest problems. This includes organizing their vision and maintaining transparency.
Use 5 Paragraph Business Plan to organize problems and crush them.
Mission: Work in hard copy for one day. Focus your planning and organization efforts toward hard copy planning. Write out your plan with pen and paper. Illustrate it on the dry-erase board. Hard copy puts things “in stone”.
Execution
5 Paragraph’s intention is to increase team productivity by limiting the technology needed to get organized and commit action.
Assemble your team. Put the 5 Paragraphs on the board. Ask for your team’s intelligence input.
Create a vision using 5 Paragraph Business Plan
Gather input from each member

Task leaders with creating a 5P vision for success in their area of the organization
