Business Planning - Waterfall of Accountability

Adam Payne • 3 January 2021

For All Those People Looking at Business Planning and Those That Don't - You Need Accountability.

For anybody looking at Business Planning or Getting The Right Things Done bear in mind the ‘Waterfall of Accountability’ applies.


Whatever horizon you’re looking at (Yearly, Quarterly, Monthly) the Objectives or Actions need to be broken down into Daily Tasks.


I do this with my Business Planning Masterclass and also my 30-Day Fire-Up Mastermind Groups. (albeit they are a unique process and template to each)


The video above discusses in a little more detail my approach to this, and believe me, this sets you apart from others, if you keep on top of the structure, make it a habit, and implement the actions it will deliver the Results.


Business Planning is easy, it’s the EXECUTION and IMPLEMENTATION that’s difficult.


***BUSINESS PLANNING & 90 DAY ACTION PROGRAMME***


You ‘know’ your business is capable of more but either never get the time to do it or you don’t know how to do it and simply want a helping hand.
