That's Teamwork
This evening, our HR simulation team had our weekly meeting to take care of business. We made decisions regarding inputs and incidents for the 3rd quarter of year 2. When the simulation began, our meetings lasted anywhere from 1 - 2 hours. We had trouble figuring out specifically what we had to do, and we were still getting to know each other and what responsibilities each person would take care of. However, this evening was the most efficient meeting we have had yet. We accomplished everything within 30 minutes and the quality of our work was far better than anything we did in the fist year. We work well as a team and we utilize everyone's talents to get the work done in the most efficient fashion. I am happy with the progress our team has made over the past 7 weeks or so. Good work Four Seasons Hotels!

Our group has noticed a similar trend. Our first couple of meeting were very slow and inefficient. I think part of the reason was that we were all still practically strangers trying to work together. Lately, our meetings last about a half hour and we squeeze them in during the day as opposed to trying to do them in the evenings. We also work well together as a team to facilitate quicker meetings and successful quarterly outputs.
