Ivy Sea Planning Tip Series
Planning Tip #10: Align your expectations with reality (or vice versa!)

In the earlier tips of this series, you (1) identified personal and/or group goals, (2) looked at a method for creating collaboration among group members for goal support throughout the first quarter or year, (3) identified milestones to stay on track, (4) identified accomplishments to celebrate, (5) took a look at mid-course adjustments, (6) whip up an attitudinal energy booster, (7) take an ethics pulse-check of the effects of your plan, (8) infuse your plan with its original spirit, and (9) integrate past, present and future.

Planning tip #10 features a tip to help you assess the reality of your company culture (including the behavior that the culture rewards), and compare your evaluation with your plan, specifically your action items.

The "Introduction to Planning" article and the full 14-tip series is now available in the Ivy Sea VIP Content Collection, and in the "Vision Clinic" PDF Tip Kit and workbook (available in the Ivy Sea Online Resource Store), as well as in our custom-created PDF skill-builder kits.
