Thanks to our focus on documenting our systems, employees have a very clear understanding of what is expected of them and how to execute their responsibilities. Because of this excellent documentation, we are able to hire for attitude and train for skills.
We have daily stand up meetings and have adopted the Open Book Management style pioneered by Jack Stack. Each team has clear metrics and know what needs to be done to achieve them.
