Traditional business structures are dying. According to recent global reports, "Redesigning the organization" is now the No. 1 organizational trend around the world. The global mandate to business is clear: change the way you do business, or be left behind. But change how? Business-as-usual is a thing of the past, but where is a roadmap for the future? The HOT Plan(TM) is an engaging, story-based read that inspires organizational leaders and offers simple step-by-step instructions to give their businesses the tools to compete for talent and increase productivity in the new global marketplace. The HOT Plan(TM) - tested quietly in a mid-sized business for over 20 years - uses a team-based system. The HOT Plan engages employees and keeps them productive, focused on the goal, and nimble. Employee input is sought to write HOT Targets (precision goals), guided by the annual Must-Win Challenges and Key Initiatives established by the executive team. Employee HOT Teams and department teams write and accomplish HOT Targets, which describe how they plan to accomplish both their day-to-day assignments and the Must Win Challenges for the year. Teams gather points as are targets completed, and points accumulate, system-wide. All employees are then equally included at year-end through an annual bonus fund earned on the basis of the HOT Plan accumulated points. Author Harvey R. Dean, co-founder of Pitsco Education, and co-writers C.L. King & Cody White, created The HOT Plan(TM) as a practical handbook to help you meet and exceed the 21st Century demands on your business. The book not only tells the basics of the HOT Plan, but also offers research, a rich list of resources for further study, and provides forms and templates to assist the reader with implementation of a HOT Plan in their business.
