It is often hard to get started, just getting the momentum to get moving sometimes seems overwhelming especially when the task is as large as “reduce your workers comp costs.” It’s so difficult to get started, in fact, that many companies don’t EVER get started.
Several things that may help:
1- Choose 1-2 changes – Eat elephant in small bites — not all at once. It’s a big task, so break it down into smaller ones.
2- Start Now – Don’t wait until all the “lights are on green” to drive down Main Street. Everything doesn’t have to be perfect for you to get started. The important thing is to JUST START.
3- Delegate some of the load – If you plan many changes, learn to delegate to others. You can plan, but you may need help with the execution of the tasks.
4- Hold Everyone Accountable – Use a Timetable which is updated every week — list each task, who is responsible for completion of the task, and the time-frame for completion. Click here to see a sample: TIMETABLE SAMPLE
