This four-part series is designed for a small group of leaders willing to explore four key topics in a non-competitive discussion.  Each two-hour session will be structured in a roundtable open discussion format.  All participants must come with a willingness to share ideas, challenges and opportunities.  The four topics that will be covered include:

• Communication – What is the biggest communication challenge facing your team today?  What are you doing to eliminate it?
• Removing the Obstacles – What are some common obstacles facing your team (real or perceived)?   How can you improve your effectiveness in helping them to remove these obstacles?
• Accountability – How do you currently hold your teams accountable?  How do performance metrics help or hurt as you try to establish a culture of accountability?  
• Changing Times – The tight labor market and record low unemployment can make recruiting very difficult while orders sit open.  Just as quickly a market correction can make sales the challenge.  What are you doing to plan for these inevitable difficulties? How are you preparing for the long overdue recession?
